multiple file DCR upload ?

nipper

I have a callout in a DCR to upload a file.

Similar to the one posted in the tech lib, it uses <INPUT TYPE="file" NAME="filename"...
to pop up a browser to select a local file for upload.

Now the users want multiple file upload. I can add a button that is upload and browse
for another file. But that is not very clean. Anyone solve this puppy before ? How can
you make HTML browse for multiple files ?

Tips/Pointers/RTFMs appreciated

Ugh... I think you'll need to write it yourself. I had to do this earlier this year but it would up being kinda fun. I made it look exactly like the TS file browser but I bastardized and reverse-engineered just about everything to make it my own.

TS's file browse functionality will get you most of the way but I think you'll need to create the frames/HTML and JS functionality yourself.

Well - depending how you wrote the CGI - you could provide a button ["Upload Another"] to recurse through the script N times (until they click on "Done") and they'd just have to go through the process N times - if done "right" you should be able to preserve the currently navigated-to directory.

Another positibility is to provide for multi-select in the navigation/selection portion and then iterate through the list to perform the actual uploads.

your first suggestion was my thought, just not articulated very well.

Any idea how to provide for multi-select in the navigation/selection portion ?

If I can do that I think I can get the rest to work

It all depends on how you implemented the navigation/selection portion of the CGI.
If you wrote that code yourself - you should be able to figure out how to do it.
If you're using OOTB code - you either need to figure out if there are options, reverse-engineer it, or replace it with code you write yourself.
