RE: [PHP] Multiple file uploads (ftp)

You can only upload multiple file if the user selects each of them. you can not preset a value in an input field of type "file" for obvious security reasons. Also, you can't have the server initiate a file "download" of multiple files from the client as you might have suggested in your question(specify a directory on the client side and upload all of the files from there). The only thing that can do this is an ActiveX component that works with a server side component. I only know of such a combination on Windows / ASP.
