How Can I Attend Multiple Files To A File Input In HTML And ExpressJS?

Question

I am trying to make a file system for my website and I this file input to hold multiple files.

I tried to put the files in a folder and put the directory on file input's value but it did not work. How can I solve this ?

(You can also comment solutions with NodeJS file system.)

<div id="input-div-2"><input id="program-input" required type="file" value="/6/"  name="file input"></div>

just add multiple attribute to your input like

 <div id="input-div-2"><input multiple id="program-input" required type="file" value="/6/"  name="file"></div>

UPDATE

based on comments you want to set multiple files onto html input element, you should do that using js

var input = document.querySelector("input");
input.files = `ArrayOfImages`;
