$_FILES Uploads Only First File When Parsed - php

Question

Ok guys this might seem like such a newbie issue but I've got looping issues that I just can't seem to work around. I'm simply trying to upload multiple images on my first project site.
When I posted this test php page up, it uploads all the files that I requested of it fine
; with all images that I wish to upload being uploaded at the directory intended.
<?php
$files = $_FILES['fileField'];
for ($x = 0; $x < count($files['name']); $x++)
{
$name = $files['name'][$x];
$tmp_name = $files['tmp_name'][$x];
move_uploaded_file($tmp_name, "property_images/$property_name/" . $name);
header("location: property_list.php");
exit();
}
?>
However when I tried including my parser, though it goes into the correct directory, only the first file gets uploaded
<?php
if(isset($_POST['property_name'])){
$property_name = mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['property_name']);
$district = mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['district']);
$address = mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['address']);
$property_type = mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['property_type']);
$sql = mysql_query("SELECT id FROM mydb WHERE property_name='$property_name' LIMIT 1");
$propertyMatch = mysql_num_rows($sql);
if($propertyMatch > 0)
{
echo 'Sorry, you tried to place a duplicate "Property Name" into the system, click here';
exit();
}
$sql = mysql_query("INSERT INTO mydb (property_name, district, address, property_type) VALUES ('$property_name','$ district','$address','$property_type')")or die (mysql_error());
if (!file_exists("property_images/$property_name"))
{
mkdir("property_images/$property_name");
}
$files = $_FILES['fileField'];
for ($x = 0; $x < count($files['name']); $x++)
{
$name = $files['name'][$x];
$tmp_name = $files['tmp_name'][$x];
move_uploaded_file($tmp_name, "property_images/$property_name/" . $name);
header("location: property_list.php");
exit();
}
}
?>
The count code works fine so I think its either these {} buggers or I need to get my eyes fixed. Any help would be uber appreciated.

Answer 1

you need to add to input name [] brackets and attribute "multiple"
<form id = "upload_form" method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data" >
<input type="file" name="uploaded_file[]" multiple="true" id="uploaded_file" style="color:black" /><br/>
</form>
Now all uploaded file will be available via
$_FILES['uploaded_file']['name'][0]
$_FILES['uploaded_file']['name'][1]
and so on

hope this will sure help you.
