AJAX Multiple File Upload Form Using jQuery

Description

For this tutorial, i’ll be using latest version of jQuery and Ajax upload library by Andrew Valums . Grab both libraries and add them to your page header

#upload{ margin:30px 200px; padding:15px; font-weight:bold; font-size:1.3em; font-family:Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; text-align:center; background:#f2f2f2; color:#3366cc; border:1px solid #ccc; width:150px; ...
