I have a project to implement an EDI solution into an existing ecommerce-like website. There are only three EDI documents involved and only one company to transfer files with. They have strictly defined the X12 documents, and will be responsible for all of the GET/PUT's to an FTP site. The three documents are the Inventory Advice (inbound), Shipment Notification (inbound), and Invoice (outbound).

We do not want/need to implement a full-blown EDI management solution. My question is, am I crazy to think that this is a relatively simple parsing task using PHP? Does anyone know of any existing PHP libraries that might be useful (maybe X12 to XML)? My searches have come-up empty. I'd like to get started on my own right away if it is a realistic goal and no other resources are available.


Question: How to upload multiple images to a server into a Django application?
Answer: Documentation for uploading files in django: https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/topics/http/file-uploads/

HTML only allows to upload one file per upload-controller. To upload multiple files either the user can create a zip file (or similar), upload that and on the server side you extract it into multiple files. Or you have to use a flash component. There are lots of these available, for example http://developer.yahoo.com/yui/uploader/
