Multiple Image Uploads

[spikypunker]

Hi Guys, i'm creating an Out an About style gallery, where our team of photographers can sign in then upload a bunch of images. I currently have an image uploader going on elsewhere in the site with the person logging in the choosing a single image, this then gets saved and the filename gets put into the database next to the image id.

 

Obviously when a photographer wants to upload thier images, they're gonna get fed up sitting there uploading one at a time. How easy is it gonna be for me to implement a multiple file upload script, and then get this to function the same as before, ie putting the filename of the image into the Mysql next to the respective id.

 

Has anyone done this before who can offer me some help??

 

Kind Regards, Chris H

Unless you want them to zip the files before uploading, you need to use a Flash form to allow selection of more than one file at once (you can use a HTML form with multiple file fields, but each file must be individually selected) - http://demo.swfupload.org/v220/index.htm

That's not user friendly if you expect to be uploading more than about 5 files at once.
