( JQuery / Javascript ) Multi File Uploader

Droply is a responsive jQuery based plugin, that simplifies the developers task to setup a multi/single file uploader component. It is highly configurable and easy to install. This plugin comes with a configurable server side PHP script that should be clear enough for developers to customize. It is important to know that there is a list of permitted file (MIME) types, which can be configured conjuctively on both server/client side to filter out any type of harmful or undesired file types.

This way you can initialize the plugin. Check the documentation and read more about options options.

Markup

This is the simple html markup.

<div id="company-files"></div>

Even if you test all this in different browsers I recommend to add some kind of link to a basic uploader, this is still a new feature on several platforms.
