Yes, the book is great.  But the problem is that this script won't be 
usable due to web interface limitations (to fix it, extensive 
java-scripting is required).  For example, I entered into a subdirectory 
and clicked of file names. Then I want to visit another subdir to select 
more files. What do I do? Of course, click 'Back' to go to parent, and 
loose all my selections when I enter another subdir!

On my opinion, another solution aside this script is required. I would 
recommend ftp in this case.
