i have looked into this , and the browser is only limited to single file uploads , but yes a a java applet is prob the best options, i am considering on learning java as it is similar to php OO or maybe the other way round, it looks familiar so maye i can get my hed around it :D, maye there is an open source java example , but frankly i've never seen one :|

If this is a real priority, you can write some sort of ActiveX component that you can use to upload. However, you will have to ask the client for security permissions, since client apps do not have access to the remote file system (for good reason). Either that, or you can write a Java applet to do it. Bottom line, no way to do it with PHP, but if you really want it done, look to other languages. -- Burhan Khalid phplist[at]meidomus[dot]com -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
