Not completely sure I understand the question, but if I'm interpreting correctly, you want to allow the user to select several files and only submit them once.

I have done this several times: in my HTML, have a series of <input type=file> boxes, named "file1" "file2" etc., with the expected "Submit" underneath. Then in my Perl, I loop the names through my uploader.

What I would really like to do is have the user select a folder on their local drive and have the Perl grep all the files, uploading them as they are read, or through an array. Have tried it and can't seem to land on the right code, especially on my Mac (weird path names).

Hope this helps and that I got close.
