How about using checkboxes?

[vanik]

I want to select by click on the thumbnail of the image.So,i dont want the check boxes.And i want to upload the folders and subfolders and the files also.

Use check boxes, and add the thumbnail image inside the label tag.

My client don't want the selecting by using check boxes.He want to do it only by selecting the images directly click on them.Any possible solution please help me?

Ok, why not link the label to the checkbox, set the style on <input> to position it off screen with something like 'position:absolute; left:-1000px;'

Then use javascript to add a border around the image or some thing to let the user know it's selected.

can u please send me how we write the code by using lable and checkbox. I dont know how to write?

<div>
<input id="id1" name="pic1" type="checkbox" style="position:absolute; left:-1000px" />
<label for="id1"><img src="" /></label>
</div>

Label uses id for it's reference, and the $_POST will use name.
