Rob,

That's  nice little solutions. I think though, what he ultimately wants is
to not have to "browse" for each new file... But rather to select multiple
files from one dialogue as you would in FireWorks or Photoshop.

The only solutions I have seen like this are thrid party stuff like ActiveX
dealies.

What about using DHTML?  Take a look at something like this:

h-a-single-file-element/

I've played with it a little bit and it looks pretty nice.  I have not used
it in production, though, so it will require some testing.
