The problem is that the browsers access to the file system is very limited for obvious secerity reasons, so this kind of thing generally doesn't work so well. I imagine that is why online photo services (flickr) offer client side apps for batch uploading etc. Hmm, I wonder if one could utilize an API from one such app for this sort of thing - could be interesting. Or am I missunderstanding your situation?
