bulk file upload
Posted: Thu Aug 27, 2009 3:12 am
Hi,
I need to develop a bulk upload script that can handle 100+ image uploads. Each image will be large, not RAW but not far off.
What do I need to be aware of in terms of server timeouts etc?
The way I plan to implement it is as follows:
1)User selects folder of images.
2)Script checks size of folder and confirms file compatibility.
3)Folder is then zipped
4)Zipped folder is uploaded.
5)Folder is un-zipped and loaded into the gallery
I'm pretty sure all of this is possible. Is this the best solution? Is there anything I need to be aware of regarding this?
Thanks for you help.
