How to select multiple files with <input type="file">?

Question

In gmail,I can select several files at one time,

How to implement it?

Answer 1

You can only select 1 file per <input type="file" />. If you want to send multiple files you will have to use multiple input tags or use Flash or Silverlight.

Answer 2

You can't do this with simple HTML/JS, you must use a Flash plugin or Java
