[SOLVED] multi-file upload script

woodsonoversoul · December 9, 2008

Give me just a second...

Yes! It made a great deal of difference. The script now uploads the first file but not the second (which is much better than uploading no files, as was the case before), so now I'll start looking at the for loops...

Update: I tried it with three files and it only uploads the first...

do you get an error or does it just stop?

AHHH!! It works!! Thank you so much gevans! I've been working on this off and on for about six months, and now I finally have a working script. Thank you.

Why did including the ['name'] field in the for loop help?

gevans · December 9, 2008

if you count $_FILES['uploaded'] it will count the next arrays (multi dimensional array)

which I believe will always result in 5

woodsonoversoul · December 9, 2008

Okay, that makes sense, but I never would have figured it out on my own. Thanks again.
