Upload a whole folder of images

[aleci]

I am looking for a way to upload a whole folder/directory of images to the CF server in one shot.

I have experience of multiple file uploads - using multiple input fields - with the CFFILE tag, but need to be able to upload a whole folder/directory without selecting each image individually.

Does anyone have any experience/ideas on this?
Many thanks

You can't pull a file off a user's hard drive like that.. they have to select the file and you definitely cannot scan a directory for a list of files like that.

Thanks webmigit, I was afraid of that. Do you know any methods for selecting multiple images, like a SELECT ALL function, which would then allow all the images in the folder to be uploaded together in one shot?

Basically i'm looking for any method faster than individually selecting images in multiple file fields.
Many thanks

This works great with CF, I've used it several times. It allows you upload multiple files. They even have a working CF example in their demo.
