Multiple file uploader in HTML5 -- browser support?

Question

I read that the HTML5 spec introduced the ability to select multiple files in an upload form. What browsers currently support this? Does Adobe AIR support it?

Bonus question: Is there a JavaScript library that takes advantage of this functionality?

Answer 1

Firefox 3.6, soon to be released, will have it as well, along with some other file-related goodies:

It is also supported by Chrome 3.

I have no info on Adobe Air, but it might be so, since the feature has been in Webkit nightly for more than a year.

Wrong, Firefox 3.6, Chrome 3+, Opera and Safari 4+ support HTML5 multiple file upload. – Gingili

@Jonathan, at the time of this question (dec 28, 2009) firefox 3.6 had not yet been released. You should add your own answer to give more information. – Alcmene

Oh! Sorry about that, You're right did't notice the date. Do you want me to delete my comment? – Gingili
