Thanks for the feedback.
But in my application, I do not know how many files the user want to upload
and I would like to allow them upload as many as they like. So I can not
set many <INPUT type="file" .... > because I do not know how many the user
may need.
Is there a better way to save the selected files in somewhere and allow the
user to select another one. When they done, upload all the selected files at
once when the user hit submit button?
Thanks
James
