upload directory, not just file

[sd1]

Hi All!
i'm trying to build a script that will upload all the files that i have on a direcotory.

i want to do the following:
step1 - make a form which the user will select one of the files in the directory (no problem to do it, just html form)

step2 - recognize what is the path of the directory - here i need some help, how can i now the directory?

step3 - loop over the files and upload them (did it for static directory, which i give the directory name)

hope someone can help

Not possible from within a web browser. The web browser will not let you write code to talk to the directory. The user has to specify each and every file (ugly, but its for safety).

The other option I've seen done is an actually standalone Java app or maybe a Java applet. I could be wrong, but the Java applet by default gets to play in the same sandbox as the browse and therefore doesn't get access to the directory, but I think there's ways around this.

i've had similar problems.. i was presented by solutions that seemed to be a bigger headache to achieve. my solution? Educated the user to use a file compressor such as WinZip..

Results? simply. Awsome..
