File Uploading

[Poul]

I have a set of files i would like to upload.
is there an easy way using the File Upload button to handle more than one file. without having to browse to each? (Since i can deduce the filenames after the first selection)

If i try multiple upload buttons I  can't seem to programmatically set the filenames, via: using send to server/reset etc.

or a way to :
 to upload via a wildcard? or Update via contents of a folder? or a filelist? ...

thanks

Hi Poul,

I was using a web document storage and retrieval system last year and it had the screen to upload multiple files similar to what you would be used to in windows. I thought that was pretty cool. I later saw the same screen as a JQuery add on.

Hi Poul,


I experimented with this a couple years ago. As far as I recall for fairly obvious security reasons javascript cannot change the value of file-upload fields.
