Does anyone know how to do the following... =\

Okay so I want to use 1 progress bar to show the progress.

Let's say I have a config file with the following..

<Link 1>http://directLink 1</Link 1>
<Link 2>http://directLink 2</Link 2>
<Link 3>http://directLink 3</Link 3>

Okay so it will start downloading from Direct Link 1, a progress bar will show the progress.
( with the file name if possible, and size? )

after it has complete the download for link 1 it will start the download for Link 2 and it will show the same thing for the progress and then it will download link 3

thats 1 way I was thinking of, my 2nd way of doing this seems easier but Im not sure if its possible...

Instead of downloading 1 link after another all I have to do is make a directory on my web server like
http://myWebsite.com/MyFiles
Then when I click download it will download ALL the files inside of that directory

If anyone could help I'd greatly appreciate it :]

Hello NoWayIn,

Ok I made a demo application for you of how this could be done. All you do is enter your FTP address, Username and Password then select a folder to save the files into and press "Download All" button. It will then get a list of every file within your FTP folder and put them into a Combobox. Then it cycles through them all and downloads them one at a time with a progress bar and a label to show which file is being downloaded.

Download:

multidownload.zip

Hope that helps cooll;

Thanks for the demo!
is there a way to do this through HTTP?

Apparently my church's website hoster said that they allow FTP but it takes anywhere from 2-4 days to activate the account, but Its been 1 week and it hasnt been activated yet...

So now I have to use HTTP, so is there a way to do the exact same thing using HTTP?

I put in my FTP details and the folder but after it said Files found It wont download.

Hello,

I think the only way you could use the code I gave you via HTTP would be if you had a text file with all the names of the files in it like:

Image1.jpg
Image2.jpg
Software.exe
PantsUp.zip

It would then be easy to change the code to load the text file instead of getting a list of files via FTP. If that makes sense? ;)

Huh? D:

I asked someone about this and they said "Parsing"?
They said you have to read the files inside that directory and then download it.
I have no idea what that means =\

Hello,

If you dont have access to FTP how did you upload your files onto the web host? :?

[NoWayIn]

Made it using their website creator

[CodenStuff]

Hello,

Can you upload files then?, If you can upload/use php scripts I have a solution for you.

[NoWayIn]

Yes I can upload files.
I just want to be able to download every file listed in a directory so I dont have to manually put in the link for each 1
