Yes Tedd,

This is what I am having trouble with, I can see where you can upload each
file, but all I really need it to do is take the contents of a folder and
upload everything it finds in the directory.

-Stut:

Perhaps I'm confused (certainly could be), but I think the OP is
asking for a way to upload multiple files from a desktop folder to a
server (client-side to sever-side) by just selecting the desktop
(client-side) folder.

Maybe I should read [1] a little closer, but I did read [2] and I
don't see where one can use php to open a folder on a desktop, read
its contents, and then upload the files therein. However, I do see a
way to upload individual files, but not multiple files _unless_ the
user selects them one at a time and then uploads them consecutively
via a loop. But, that still requires the user to select the files
individually and not the folder that contains them.

I certainly can read the contents of a folder on the server, but I
don't see how you can do it client-side.

Now, am I right, or do you have a way to do this?

Thanks.

tedd
