Multi file upload?

Maybe this is already being worked on, but if not, I would like to contribute to support for multi-file upload through the OS file picker. I know you can use multiple FILE upload forms, or upload a zip file, but there are several open source flash solutions available now that allow you to pick one-to-many files in your normal OS file picker, and then the Flash code loops through them and uploads them.

I have integrated one of these solutions into several of my applications, which are ASP and .Net based, and would just need some help on the PHP upload side of things to know how/what to configure in the flash code (URL for POST, field names and attributes etc).

Thoughts? Maybe there is a plugin already available that I missed?

  • i think, it is there in nightly build.

    Indeed, and it will be in 1.2.5 scheduled on June 1st.
  • Your best contribution at this point would be to thoroughly test the nightly build. We are getting close to the 1.2.5 release and would like to make it as bug free as possible.

    Will the flash version remain optional? For some stupid reason, the way my office firewall is setup, I can't use flash uploaders on any site (WordPress, ImageShack, you name it).

    Flash upload will be default but you can switch back to the normal browser upload. Also the last choice will be remembered.

    ROCK! :) Perfect for me. Bless you.
  • I have to say, this is a beautiful implementation.

    Thank you!
