Does anyone know if it's possible to select multiple photos from an album using phonegap/cordova?
It's fairly easy to create an app to select one photo using the documentation but it is not documented how to select multiple photos???
Maybe I need some plugin for it (iOS/Android)? Or a workaround? This problem is really a show stopper for me so a decent solution to this would be great.
Currently the functionality is not available in the core API. There is an enhancement request open however. At this point your best bet would be to write a plugin.
For multiple selection I have made use of file plugin which iterates through all the directories recursively and finds the image . It ignores the hidden file
var numDirs = 0; var numFiles = 0; var ImageFilePath = new Array(); function GetAllImageFromSD() { window.requestFileSystem(LocalFileSystem.PERSISTENT, 0, onFileSystemSuccess, fail); } function onFileSystemSuccess(fileSystem) { fileSystem.root.getDirectory("/sdcard", { create: false, exclusive: false }, getDirSuccess, fail); } function getDirSuccess(dirEntry) { var directoryReader = dirEntry.createReader(); // Get a list of all the entries in the directory directoryReader.readEntries(readerSuccess, fail); } var readerTimeout = null, millisecondsBetweenReadSuccess = 1000; function readerSuccess(entries) { String.prototype.startsWith = function (str) { return (this.match("^" + str) == str) } var i = 0, len = entries.length; for (; i 
"; GalleryImageTag += ""; GalleryImageTag += ""; } $('#ImageContainer').html(''); $('#ImageContainer').append(GalleryImageTag); $('#GalleryView').popup("open"); numDirs = 0; numFiles = 0; ImageFilePath = []; console.log(GalleryImageTag); } This code might take time to complete if is there is lot of image.
