    Unhappy Multiple file upload

    Dear All,

    I want to upload multiple files using a single file element since the user cannot click browse, select the file multiple times as he has to upload more than 50 files each time. So he need to have one file element and then click browse, use the shift/ctrl key to select all the files and hit the upload button to upload all those files he has selected.

    So farr I've managed to upload multiple files using multiple file elements.. and am really struck with having one file element to upload multiple files at one go.. any idea on this will be highly appreciated....

    Thanks,,

    Not possible. Especially not possible from PHP - this is about HTML-defined capabilities combined with browser UI issues.

    If you need to upload many files, handle ZIP archives and let the user upload those.
