Allow your HTML file input to select many files like <input type="file" name="images[]" multiple> and then loop through the same $_FILES var. Also, don't forget to add the <form> enctype attribute like enctype="multipart/form-data".
$image_files = $_FILES['images']['tmp_name'];
foreach($image_files as $key=>$value){
// write some code to process the information
// this will loop through all the images, no matter how many, so the same code inside these curly braces will be applied to each file/image/whatever.
}
