HTMLInputFile Control for Multiple Files

I am using ASP.Net with C# as the code behind and am trying to upload
multiple files with the HTMLInputFile Control. I am able to browse, select
a file, and finally upload, but only one file at a time. Is there a way to
select multiple files to upload at one time using this control, or possibly
another control?? Any ideas on this would be greatly appreciated!!

Thank a lot!

The standard File control allows only one file to be specified for upload.
If you need to upload 2 files, then the simplest solution is to have 2 File
controls on the page.
There are fancier options, but they generally require thick clients. Here
are some 3rd party options that may help you out:

I guess I was looking to upload 2 or more at one time. I might just have to
use to file controls. Thanks for your help!
