multiple image upload with ordering...

[zander1983]

Hi

I want to allow users to upload multiple pictures and allow the user to rearrange the order before being uploaded. I have some javascript which populates a select tag with the image names after selecting an image to upload, and some other javascript that allows the users to move the options up and down the list. So it ouputs code such as this to user if they have selected 2 image files for uploading:

 

<select size="6" id="file_list" name="file_list">

<option value="file_0">DSCN2794.JPG</option>

                                <option value="file_1">DSCN2787.JPG</option>

</select>

 

I dont know if this is the correct way of approaching it because then in the back end, I use $_FILES, which doesn't care what order the options are in the select tag....

Any advice?

Thanks!
