Multiple File download

RJN

Hi

I need help in allowing the user to download multiple files at once.
User will be displayed a grid on the browser which will list the various
files available on the web server for download and a check box beside
each. User will select the files that are to be downloaded. On click of
start button, user should be prompted for the path where files have to
be saved and then all files have to downloaded and saved in that
directory. Can someone suggest a solution

Thanks

Two ways.

1) Write an ActiveX control that facilitates this. The control could then
download each selected item in turn.
2) Zip the selected files and then have the browser download just that one
file.

Client-side ActiveX control or Java applet.
