This module is the correctly namespaced version of http://drupal.org/project/1115362. Please use this instead of that one.

The File module of Drupal 7 enables you to select only one file at a time which can be very time consuming in case of many files. This module uses the 'multiple' attribute of html5 to overcome this problem and presents a widget called 'Multiple' that can be used with fields of type File.

Using this Multiple widget in case of File fields it is possible to select more files at a time, which can be a big time saver.

For an image field see Multiupload Imagefield Widget, which depends on this module.

Known browsers to work with: Firefox 3.6+, Chromium 10+, Opera 11.01+.
IE 10 is said to support the 'multiple' html5 attribute but have not tested it.
