Can we Upload all files in the folder in one go ?

[savvy]

Is it possible to Upload all the files in a particular folder at one
go. I've seen many articles and info on Google and here and there about
how to Upload multiple files one by one upto 2GB, I haven't found no
information on net regarding the one I want. I just want to select all
(Cntrl+A) the files in a folder and upload all the them into the
database in one go.
Is it possible ?? Is there any such component??
Any advice is of immense value to me
Thanks in Advance

The <input type="file"...> HTML element allows the user to select ONE
file to be uploaded. There's no way in HTML to allow selecting an
entire directory.

Of course, if you write your own ActiveX control, and can persuade
people to run it, you can do whatever you want.

Thank you very much for helpTim
So, using HTML controls its not possible then, I'll dig a bit more
about this ActiveX controls coz the Uploadin process is done in the
Back End during the website maintainence and we need to Upload around
100-150 images everytime which is a time consuming process. Ultimately
it should work for us . Thats our problem
Thank you very much Tim

Isn't a more appropriate method ftp? You can script ftp.
