fineuploader Upload files with folder structure

I want to upload entire folder structure with files in it. In file uploader I can drag n drop a folder and it uploads all files in that folder and also the subfolder. But I am not able to get the folder structure on clients machine so that I can mantain it on server.

Does fineuploader give the source folder name of clients machine like we have in chrome's "webkitdirectory"?

If you are asking for the file path to be sent along with the requests (when uploading an entire folder via DnD) there is an open case in the Fine Uploader issue tracker that you should have a look at. Long story short, this is currently only possible when dropping a file (or directory) into Chrome, and not when selecting files via the file chooser dialog due to a bug in Chrome that prevents access to associated FileEntry objects when handling files submitted via a file input.

The Fine Uploader feature request I referenced has been on hold, but I am happy to put it back in the "to-work" queue if enough users tell me that passing path attributes for files via DnD only is useful. Feel free to add your comments to that case.
