good way to implement uploading/parsing

I'm starting to learn PHP and I created a project for myself.  What I want to do is parse a game log file and put into database to play around with; fairly simple but I'm going to make it a public website at some point (if I actually do it) and I'm trying to figure out what would be the best way to implement it;

 

Forgive my basic logic, but this is what I am currently envisioning.

 

1) Person logs into website.

2) Person selects log file to upload.

3) File get's upload to server and get's parsed into the database.

4) slice and dice data into wherever it needs to go.

5) Display updated data.

 

The confusing part for me is how do I handle multiple upload/parse requests?

 

a) Is this something that PHP handles in session management?

b) Do you I create staging tables per individual?

 

I'm still reading through the books and so it may be there already but I wanted to get some other opinions.

 

thanks
