Hi all,

I'm using plupload to upload files to my server (http://www.plupload.com/index.php), however I wanted to know if there was any way of making the upload path variable.

Basically I need to select the upload path folder first, then choose the files using plupload and then upload to the initially selected folder.

I've tried a few different ways but I can't seem to pass along the variable folder path to the upload.php file. I'm using the flash version of plupload.

If someone could help me out, that would be fantastic!! :)

Here's my plupload jquery:

jQuery.noConflict();
jQuery(document).ready(function() {
  jQuery("#flash_uploader").pluploadQueue({
    // General settings
    runtimes: 'flash',
    url: '/assets/upload/upload.php',
    max_file_size: '10mb',
    chunk_size: '1mb',
    unique_names: false,
    // Resize images on clientside if we can
    resize: {width: 500, height: 350, quality: 100},
    // Flash settings
    flash_swf_url: '/assets/upload/flash/plupload.flash.swf'    
  });
});

And here's the upload.php file:
