Uploading multiple files in Django through one form field

Is there any custom widget (or a special magic way) to upload multiple files (or a whole folder!) through one form field? I have tried this multifile widget but it uses many simple FileFileds.

HTML 5 now allows for multiple file uploads in a single form control.

https://github.com/tstone/django-uploadify is a reusable Django app that integrates http://uploadify.com.

From Uploadify's website:

Uploadify is a jQuery plugin that integrates a fully-customizable multiple file upload utility on your website. It uses a mixture of Javascript, ActionScript, and any server-side language to dynamically create an instance over any DOM element on a page.

As Daniel said, File Input fields cannot support more than one file. However, there are ways around this using Things like SWFUpload. How you might integrate that workflow into a Django application, I'm not too sure.

No, you can't do that - HTML file inputs don't allow it.
