Asp.net MVC: upload multiple image files?

Question

is there a good example of how to upload multiple image files in asp.net mvc? I know we can use HttpPostedFileBase to upload one file. Is there a way to upload multiple files by clicking one button?

I used file upload in ajaxtoolbox in webform before and like how it works. Is there a similar way in MVC? or, is there a existing control that can do this well? free control is better, but it is ok even it costs some $.

Thanks

You could implement an action with POST http verb to that receive a collection of HttpPostedFileBase and save all files, for sample:

[HttpPost] public ActionResult Upload(IEnumerable<HttpPostedFileBase> files)  {     foreach (var file in files)     {         file.SaveAs(Server.MapPath("~/Update/" + file.FileName));     }      return View(); } 

Alternatively, you could read Request.Files and do the same job,

[HttpPost] public ActionResult Upload()  {     foreach (var file in Request.Files)     {         file.SaveAs(Server.MapPath("~/Update/" + file.FileName));     }      return View(); }
