Looks like a cool solutions, specially because you can use a HTML interface with javascript.<br />
Only drawback would be that I would find it cool to see the upload status per file, but you can't have it all I guess ;).<br />
<br />
Thanks!

<div class="content wysiwyg-content">
I'm currently working on a file management tool for my content management system.<br />
For this I'm using mainly PHP and javascript (ajax).<br />
<br />
I'm looking for a solutions to have a button which opens a filesystem selector dialog (like the &lt;input type=&quot;file&quot; thingie), but in which I can directly select multiple files using the Ctrl or Shift key of my keyboard.<br />
<br />
So I'm not looking for a system that let you select one item per time and adds them to a list, and enable you to upload the list at once. I want to select the files at once.<br />
<br />
If a solutions is available with a file upload progress bar for the selected files, this would be great. But selecting multiple files at once is my main target.<br />
<br />
In first instance I would like to see if this is possible through javascript, but it really isn't possible, what is the best way to go from here, without any java, flash or other skills?<br />
<br />
Thanks!

Directly select multiple files from a filesystem selector and monitor the upload progress.

JavaScript is a dynamic, object-based language commonly used for client-side scripting in web browsers. Recently, server side JavaScript frameworks have also emerged. JavaScript runs on nearly every operating system and  in almost every mainstream web browser.

JavaScript

PHP is a widely-used server-side scripting language especially suited for web development, powering tens of millions of sites from Facebook to personal WordPress blogs. PHP is often paired with the MySQL relational database, but includes support for most other mainstream databases. By utilizing different Server APIs, PHP can work on many different web servers as a server-side scripting language.

Asynchronous JavaScript and XML (AJAX) is a group of interrelated Web development techniques used on the client-side to create asynchronous Web applications. With AJAX, web applications can send data to and retrieve from a server asynchronously (in the background) without interfering with the display and behavior of the existing page. HTML and CSS can be used in combination to mark up and style information. The Document Object Model (DOM) is accessed with JavaScript to dynamically display and allow interaction with the information presented.
