Dear Friends,

I have post this query 4 days ago......but no one replied me.....

I request you all to please help me on this........... ...

I am trying to upload multiple files. But I can't find why it is not working fine. Here is the code.........

numfile.php

[HTML]<form method="POST" action="fileupl oad.php">
<p align="center">
<font face="Verdana" size="2">Number of files</font>
<input type="text" class="text" name="numfiles" size="3" maxlength="3">< br>
<br>
<input type="submit" value="Submit" name="submit" style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: 8pt; font-weight: bold; border: 1px solid #666666; padding: 2"></p>
</form>[/HTML]


fileupload.php

[PHP]
$numoffile = $_POST['numfiles']; //value taking from numfile.php

$file_dir = "files/";

if ($_POST) {
for ($i=0;$i<$numof file;$i++) {
if (trim($_FILES['myfiles']['name'][$i])!="") {
$newfile = $file_dir.$_FIL ES['myfiles']['name'][$i];
move_uploaded_f ile($_FILES['myfiles']['tmp_name'][$i], $newfile);
$j++;
}
}
}
if (isset($j)&&$j> 0) print "<center><f ont family='verdana ' size='2' color='green'>Y our file(s) has been uploaded.</font><br>";
print "<p><h3 style='font-family:verdana; color:green;tex t-align:center'>U pload Files</h3></p><form method='post' enctype='multip art/form-data'>";
for($i=0;$i<$nu moffile;$i++) {

$num = $i+1;
print "<center><s pan style='font-family:verdana; font-size:10pt'>File $num </span> <input type='file' name='myfiles[]' size='30'><br>" ;
}
print "<p align='center'> <input type='submit' name='action' value='Upload'> </p>";
print "</form>"; [/PHP]

Erm... the error would be that there's no file input in your HTML, so nothing's getting uploaded.

Try this coding and if you can't understand what i have done here come back to the thread.

I have done some changes to these areas..

1. hidden field.
2. for loops
3. form action

[PHP]
<?php
$numoffile=$_PO ST['numfiles'];


$file_dir = "files/";

if ($_POST['action'])
{
for($x=1;$x<=$n umoffile;$x++)
{
$newfile = $file_dir.$_FIL ES['myfiles'.$x.'']['name'];
move_uploaded_f ile($_FILES['myfiles'.$x.'']['tmp_name'],$newfile);
$j++;
}
}

if (isset($j)&&$j> 0)
print "<center><f ont family='verdana ' size='2' color='green'>Y our file(s) has been uploaded.</font><br>";

if($_POST['submit'])
{
print '<p><h3 style="font-family:verdana; color:green;tex t-align:center">U pload Files</h3></p>
<form action="'.$PHP_ SELF.'" method="post" enctype="multip art/form-data">';

for($i=0;$i<$nu moffile;$i++)
{
$num = $i+1;

print '<center><span style="font-family:verdana; font-size:10pt">File $num </span>
<input type="file" name="myfiles'. $num.'" size="30"><br>' ;

}

print '<p align="center"> <input type="hidden" name="numfiles" value="'.$numof file.'"><input type="submit" name="action" value="Upload"> </p>';

print "</form>";
}
?>
[/PHP]

[PHP]<input type="file" name="myfiles'. $num.'" size="30">[/PHP]
