Aurigma Image Uploader v5.5Dual is a powerful uploading solution for
your sites. It enables site developers to provide their clients with a
user-friendly batch uploading interface. Now to upload, say, 100 files, the
user doesn't need to click 100 times on the Browse button and select each
file separately (as through the standard HTML means). The user can navigate
their folders directly in their browser, select necessary files, and start the
upload process only in few clicks.
