So you want to upload all the files in a directory to a website? Simply by selecting on the directory? Quick answer is that it's not possible as far as I know. The security permissions of a browser won't allow it.	[reply]

Ask the user to tar up the directory, then use a standard file upload functionality to upload the tar file, which you then can untar server side.	[reply]
