Multiple HTTP File Uploads

I'm looking for a tool to facilitate mulitple webpage file uploads from a single file browse dialogue. I know this has been asked previously, but I can't find anything current.

I'd like to check file size prior to upload, and I gather Flash is still the only way to do that cross-browser?

Ideally, I'd like an upload progress metre. I'll be using Linux and Apache servers, but don't have access to install add-ons such as PHP APC. Again, I assume something flash-based is the only option there?

I've looked at SWFUpload, but that appears to be another of these projects where the developers have become quite zealous and turned a simple concept into a full suite of tools for the masses. It seems quite cumbersome and I don't think I want to use it for my purpose.

I'd prefer not to have to write something from scratch for this. Could someone recommend me something or perhaps suggest a non-Flash alternative if there is one? I do need full cross-browser compatibility without too many layers of degradation, so anything HTML 5 probably isn't what I want.

Thanks

As I mentioned earlier today ( Multiple file upload (client side) ) I am a big fan of Plupload which can check file size, show progress bar, single dialog for multiple files, and supports things other than Flash if needed.
