Any suggestions?

Possibly something very interactive that I can multiple-select files. Thanks!

Answer 1

Or you could use the System.Web.UI.WebControls.FileUpload class in Asp.Net

Answer 2

At this point i'd stay away from flash plugins. I'd use HTML5 uploader instead like this one:valums uploader

Sure - you'll be able to select multiple files in modern browsers only, otherwise - it'll be file by file. but hey - if person doesn't care about upgrading to newer browsers - they really probably don't know how to Ctrl+click anyways.

Flash doesn't send cookies correctly (it sends IE cookies even if you use firefox or google chrome). So - you'll lose cookies and thus sessions. There is a workaround - to send PHPSESSID in POST requests - but it simply opens door wide open for session fixation.

Answer 3

Another option is Uber-Uploader I have used it and it works well with a progress bar.

Answer 4

Uploading files with Ajax isn't possible due to security reasons. There is a work-around with posting files to an iframe, but you can't select multiple files this way.

The solution lies in flash. The two most common flash uploaders are:

swfupload - http://swfupload.org/

uploadify - http://www.uploadify.com/ (jQuery only)

Answer 5

plupload - http://www.plupload.com/

supports multiple uploads in every type except basic html4

Allows uploads using HTML5, gears, flash, silverlight, BrowserPlus or plain on HTML4
