having trouble with foreach and multiple arrays

[fantomel]

Hello i'm having some trouble with pulling data from arrays i've got a function for normalize the array $_FILES but when i'm having multiple upload fields i'm having trouble accesing second array please can someone help me ? i've tried in each mode i know .. but still can't figure it out why i can't .

 

function normalize()
{
    $files = array ();

    foreach ($_FILES as $name => $file)
    {

        if (is_array($file['name']))
        {
            foreach ($file['name'] as $i => $value)
            {
                $files[$name][] = array (
                'name'=>$value,
                'type'=>$file['type'][$i],
                'tmp_name'=>$file['tmp_name'][$i],
                'error'=>$file['error'][$i],
                'size'=>$file['size'][$i],
                );
            }
        } else
        {
            $files[$name] = $file;
        }
    }

    return $files;
}

if ( isset ($_POST['Submit']))
{
    $files = normalize();

    foreach ($files['userfile'] as $i => $file)
    {
    	echo "<pre>";
        var_dump($file);
        echo "</pre>";
    }
}

 

if i would like to get data like $file[1][name] it doesn't get the data from the second array:( or the third.. only from the first array.

Here's what I do to normalize the $_FILES array as $files...

// we do this so that even file upload fields that are not arrays, are processed as arrays... it's easier
		if (!is_array($_FILES[$key]['tmp_name']))
			$_FILES[$key] = array(
				'tmp_name' => array($_FILES[$key]['tmp_name']),
				'name' => array($_FILES[$key]['name']),
				'size' => array($_FILES[$key]['size']),
				'error' => array($_FILES[$key]['error']),
				'type' => array($_FILES[$key]['type']),
			);

		$files = array();
		foreach ($_FILES[$key]['tmp_name'] as $n => $dummy)
			if (!empty($_FILES[$key]['tmp_name'][$n]))
				$files[$n] = array(
					'tmp_name' => $_FILES[$key]['tmp_name'][$n],
					'name' => $_FILES[$key]['name'][$n],
					'size' => $_FILES[$key]['size'][$n],
					'error' => $_FILES[$key]['error'][$n],
					'type' => $_FILES[$key]['type'][$n],
				);

 

$key is just the name of the file upload field(s) in your form.
