I don't think there's any way to get what you're looking for now; the multipart-form-data parser now works around the incorrect data being sent from IE. Besides, even in an intranet app, how would you (reliably) resolve a C: reference?
Some links to check out for multiple-file upload (the most popular method is SWFUpload): http://github.com/bsmith/rails-swfupload/tree/master http://www.davesouth.org/stories/multiple-uploads-using-rails-swfupload-and-attachmentfu The SWFUpload Flash part is open-source, so it should be relatively straightforward to modify it to behave like you want (pick one file, queue all the files in that directory). --Matt Jones On Jun 17, 2:36 pm, sultan <[email protected]> wrote: > The user clicks on any one file in the directory from which all the > images are to be uploaded.
