This depends on the browser. Newer versions of firefox and chrome support this because they started to implement HTML5 specification. This is the syntax:

<input type="file" multiple=""/>

Firefox >= 3.6, Chrome >= 2, Safari >= 4 support multiple file input.

For older browsers the only good solutions are flash or javascript plugins. Here is a good resource for jquery uploaders ( some support multiple files ): http://creativefan.com/10-ajax-jquery-file-uploaders/
