  • Here is a form
    HTML Code:
    <form action="upload.php" method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data">
  Send these files:<br />
  <input name="userfile[]" type="file" /><br />
  <input name="userfile[]" type="file" /><br />
  <input type="submit" value="Send files" />
</form>
    <?php
    //places files into same dir as form resides
    foreach ($_FILES["userfile"]["error"] as $key => $error) {
    if ($error == UPLOAD_ERR_OK) {
    echo"$error_codes[$error]";
    move_uploaded_file(
    $_FILES["pictures"]["tmp_name"][$key],
    $_FILES["pictures"]["name"][$key]
    ) or die("Problems with upload");
    }
    }
    ?>

  • Hello

    Multiple files can be selected and then uploaded using the
    <input type='file' name='file[]' multiple>

    The sample php script that does the uploading:
    <html>
    <?php
    session_start();
    $target=$_POST['directory'];
    if($target[strlen($target)-1]!='/')
    $target=$target.'/';
    $count=0;
    foreach ($_FILES['file']['name'] as $filename)
    {
    $temp=$target; $tmp=$_FILES['file']['tmp_name'][$count]; $count=$count + 1; $temp=$temp.basename($filename); move_uploaded_file($tmp,$temp); $temp=''; $tmp=''; } header("location: upload.php");
    ?>
    </html>
  • Hey,

    if you are looking for an all-in-one solution you should check out the following scritpt:

    I have been using it for quite a while and like the way it provides a scaleable from. The AJAX progress bar is also quite handsome.

    In the post there also should be some hints how to configure PHP correctly. Hope, that helps

    • Since the original post/thread is well over a year old, no, it probably won't help.
