multifile-uploader

is there a solution that allows to select multiple files from the file open dialog box and upload them from ASP.NET web page? I have gone through previous posts related to this, but wondering if it is possible to select multiple files for upload without using the technologies like flash or silverlight? thanks in advance. UPDATE: to be clear, I need to select multiple files in a folder in the dialog box at once, by pressing shift or control key. the flash upload controls allow this, but I am looking for one without flash. it looks like this is a limitation and not possible without using flash

I have the following code in my controller: public function upload(Request $request) { $files = $request->file('uploads'); if(!empty($files)) { foreach($files as $file) { Storage::put($file-getClientOriginalName(),file_get_contents($file)); } } Which is called via an api.php in routes : Route::post('/upload', [ 'uses' => 'UploadController@upload' ]); I am using postman to test my application.

I read that the HTML5 spec introduced the ability to select multiple files in an upload form. What browsers currently support this? Does Adobe AIR support it? Bonus question: Is there a JavaScript library that takes advantage of this functionality? Firefox 3.6, soon to be released, will have it as well, along with some other file-related goodies: http://hacks.mozilla.org/2009/12/multiple-file-input-in-firefox-3-6/ It is also supported by Chrome 3. I have no info on Adobe Air, but it might be so, since the feature has been in Webkit nightly for more than a year. Opera has supported this feature

I want to allow users to select a local directory on a webpage (and then read all the files in the directory). In Chrome I can add the webkitdirectory attribute to enable this functionality. According to a comment in this question and an answer to this question you should be able to do the same in firefox using mozdirectory but I am unable to get it to work. I have tried the following in Firefox with no luck (works in Chrome): <input type="file" id="files" name="files[]" multiple mozdirectory="" webkitdirectory="" directory="" /> My Firefox version is 10.0. Are there any way for a user to

I know how to upload with ASP.net's FileUpload control. What I want to do is use this jQuery Multiple File Upload Plugin to upload multiple files. Here is exactly what it does when multiple files are selected for upload: <input type="file class="multi MultiFile" id="MultiFile1_F3" name="file1[]" style="position: absolute; top: -3000px;"> But I cannot figure out how to manipulate these files from asp.net. I have tried using Request.Files as the following link instructs: ASP.Net Upload of multiple files after choosing them from jQuery That doesn't work. I think that only works for controls

What is the best client side http library to upload multiple files? If it can handle directories that's a huge bonus. I'm looking for something that is open source or free. I'm looking for something like FTP, but that works over http, through the browser. Uploading multiple files through a normal HTML 4.x form is a bit of a hassle when it comes to uploading more than 5-6 files. Feel free to share your personal experiences. Uploadify is also another great multiple file uploader. It was built off of SWFUpload and they added new features to it. Some of the features that I have found most helpful
