Hi, I'm seriously guessing here, but since I've seen that some php websites contain java stuff, like a java chatroom, I wonder if I can find a better solution adding some java to my php code.
I'm looking for a way to browse and select a folder, or allow the user to select multiple files in a folder (using the ctrl/shift key) so I can upload all the files in it to a server. what I'm trying to do is to avoid making the user browes and select each file separately, as most uploading files solution do (still haven't found a code that doesn't)
is there such file browser in java, and if yes, can I add it to my website and mix it with my php?
