Copy link

Appreciate the work. multiple uploads helps a lot as i send files across local networks without having to use an intermediary.

Some recommendations:

Some recommendations:

* DeprecationWarning: cgi.escape is deprecated, use html.escape instead as per https://gist.github.com/UniIsland/3346170?permalink_comment_id=2900206#gistcomment-2900206

* Edge case if no files selected (line 100), otherwise it will return permission error.

I modified the code as you suggested. Thanks for your helpful suggestions! 👍
