[Zope] uploading a batch of files

[Jim Sanford]

This could be implemented in javascript.

After using a form to get a list of files to upload, use
javascript to launch a new window that would be used to
programatically upload the files one at a time.
When each upload finishes the reply from the server would include
javascript code to notify the "opener" window to
rewrite the upload window with the needed
information for the next file and submit it. 

This would continue until all files have been uploaded.

An equally difficult alternative to b:  a temporary python external
method that creates file objects and reads the content from the
file system.

Perhaps the load_site (or whatever it's name is) product would help
with this?  I've never looked at it.
