I'm looking for a solution to this problem:
For an intranet site, the end user should be able to select multiple
files (or even a directory) located on his/her local machine, and press
a single button to upload them to the server.
We're a CF shop and I don't see a CF solution for this piece, bu
What about using DHTML? Take a look at something like this:
http://the-stickman.com/web-development/javascript/upload-multiple-files-with-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.

You mean by control- or shift-clicking? So click "Browse" and then
select multiple files from the dialog? If so, then that can't be done
as far as I know. Using the standard file input, control- and
shift-clicking is disabled. One file at a time. Period.
I missed that possible meaning. Thank

Rob,
That's nice little solutions. I think though, what he ultimately wants
is to not have to "browse" for each new file...

Looks promising, but may be more than I need/want. I certainly don't
want the end users able to delete files or directories on the server.
But I've just glanced at it. Thanks for the tip.

I'm not optimistic.

In other words, we need to be able to seamlessly slot the solution into our

here is a flash 8 application that allows multiple file uploads. I never
did dig in to see how it was done, but you are free to try.

I know it seems like a pain to select 20 uploads at once, but once
you've selected the first file, the browser will remember the directory
you were last
Thanks to all who offered solutions to this dilemma. As I suspected, due
to security concerns, any solution requiring a Java applet, Flash, or
any other third-party solution is a non-starter. The users will just
have to deal with it.
I am hopeful, however, that others who search the CF-Talk archiv
