uploadFiles( )

Uploads the files that the site visitor has chosen.

The uploadFiles() function triggers the upload of the files in the upload button's value property. The uploadFiles() function allows you to upload image, video, audio, document, and gallery (both images and video) files. You can upload multiple image, video, and gallery files at a time. Use the fileLimit property to set the number of files you can upload at a time.

Note that this function does not yet support multiple audio and document file uploads. You can only upload audio and document files one at a time, and the fileLimit property is restricted to 1.

The upload button does not accept files larger than certain sizes, depending on the file type. Maximum allowed file sizes are listed here.

uploadFiles() returns promptly (meaning, it does not attempt to contact the upload server) with UploadError when either the validityState's fileSizeExceedsLimit or fileTypeNotAllowed property is true.
