Uploading Entire Folders / Multiple Files
Hey everyone -
I've been using the tapestry Upload component for quite sometime, and I
would like to expand the functionality of my application to allow
multi-file/entire folder uploads. Does tapestry provide functionality to
do this? My guess would be no. If anyone has any suggestions on the best
way to do this (with tapestry in mind), I would appreciate it.
Thanks,
Katie

What exactly would a WebDAV component do?
I'm quite familiar with good ol' RFC2518, but don't see what a Tapestry
component would do with it and how it relates to uploading a folder of
files. There is now a standard Java API for content management,
though, which is interesting:

Maybe someone might be nice enough to write some Tapestry components
to implement WebDAV.

HTML/HTTP simply doesn't allow for uploading an entire folder like
that. You can put multiple single-file upload components on the same
page, but I think thats the best you'll be able to do sticking with
pure Tapestry. There is nothing Tapestry could do to make this happen.

Hey Katie,
the issue is not with Tapestry (or Struts, or PHP), but with the way
the browser handles file uploads. This is a no-go situation as the
browser can only send (even select) one file t a time: nott a directory
nor a set of files.
The solutions are multiple. I think of two:
- upload a zip file and expand it once it's all uploaded.
- choose to put several Upload components in the same page. And treat
files in the set- method (as in setFileItemToUpload(IUploadFile file)).
Here are other solutions that can make it:
buy a java ftp and http directory applet (there's one available for a
reasonable price I've been considering some time ago). Look on Google
for it.
