How to: Multiple File Download(Upload )

Hello,
I created an application where the users need to download files. I have the
list of the files stored in a database and I present the list to download in
a Datagrid. Here comes my question.
How can I make it possible that the user selects multiple files and
downloads them at once instead of clicking on every file to download?

With the file input control you can choose only one file at a time to
upload.
Is there a way to do an upload of a directory?

Any help will be appreciated

Thank You

When downloading multiple files, it might make sense to zip the files and
then the user can just download the zip. There are zip components available
that allow you to programmaticall y create archives.

Hi, I am looking for script to allow multiple files can be uploaded/attached in webform ( mostly cgi/perl or php). But I don't like the multiple input boxes using "<input type="file" size="40" maxlength="40" name="filename">" html tag. As it will limit the no. of files can be uploaded(only as many of this boxes I write in form & doesn't look good in form also). I am looking for multiple file upload in web form using "select" or

Hi there, When adding a "File Field" HTML control to an aspx page to facilitate file uploading, the following occurs: 1. You select a file that is larger than the allowed size limit. 2. Once the user selected the too large file, the page is redirected to a "page not found" error page. 3. This is as per the docs, but my question is:

I am having issues with the File Upload control for sending files to the server via HTTP. The speed of the upload is often between 20kbs and 40kbs. If I use the LAN at work to the server, it runs over 2.3mbs. The slow speeds are when using multiple providers including RoadRunner and DSL. One test instance of a 40mb file showed it running at about 20kbs for about halfway, then it burst up to 500kbs for the rest of the file.

Hi Does someone know a good tutorial for multiple file upload with xmlHttpRequest. I am trying to do directory upload. So I could choose directorys and upload those to the server. Another solution would be fake multiple file upload. It's takes only address of directorys and after choosing few address, you could push send button and PHP would do the rest.
