SWFUpload is a small javascript and flash library to get the best of both worlds – The great upload capabilitys of flash and the accessibility and ease of html and css. It allows users to upload multiple files at once by ctrl/shift-selecting in dialog, no page reloads necessary. Users can also queue uploads, remove/add files before starting upload. On the other hand, we can style upload elements with XHTML and css as we like.
