Uploading multiple files using html5 and php - php

Question

I have a file upload form set up with the HTML5 multiple attribute.
However, the form still only uploads a single file. Do i need to create some sort of a looping function in the php or is there another way of doing this?
Here's my code...
form:
<form action="<?php $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'] ?>" method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data">
<input type="file" multiple="multiple" name="file[]" id="file" />
<input name="submit" type="submit" value="Submit" />
</form>
php:
<?php
if(isset($_POST['submit'])) {
foreach($_FILES['newsImage'] as $file){
if ((($_FILES["file"]["type"] == "image/jpeg")
|| ($_FILES["file"]["type"] == "image/pjpeg")))
{
if ($_FILES["file"]["error"] > 0)
{
echo "Return Code: " . $_FILES["file"]["error"] . "<br />";
}
else
{
if (file_exists("upload/" . $_FILES["file"]["name"]))
{
echo $_FILES["file"]["name"] . " already exists. ";
}
else
{
move_uploaded_file($_FILES["file"]["tmp_name"],
"upload/" . $_FILES["file"]["name"]);
echo "Stored in: " . "upload/" . $_FILES["file"]["name"];
}
}
}
else
{
echo "Invalid file";
}
}
}
?>

Answer 1

I believe your field should be
<input type="file" multiple="multiple" name="files[]" />
And then in PHP:
<?php
foreach($_FILES['files'] as $file){
// Handle one of the uploads
}
?>

Answer 2

for ($i = 0; $i < count($_FILES['newsImage']['name']); $i++) {
// handle upload
}

Answer 3

I believe this code could serve the purpose.
It loops through the $_FILES array and creates an array with key => value pair of all the attributes for for each file.
$temp = array();
foreach ($_FILES['file'] as $key => $value) {
foreach($value as $index => $val){
$temp[$index][$key] = $val;
}
}

<?php
include 'db.php';
extract($_POST);
extract($_POST);
if(isset($submit))
{
$count = count($_FILES['image']['name']);
for($i=0;$i<$count;$i++)
{
$fname = $_FILES['image']['name'][$i];
$file_tmp = $_FILES['image']['tmp_name'][$i];
$file_size = $_FILES['image']['size'][$i];
$file_type=$_FILES['image']['type'][$i];
echo $file_size,$file_type;
$target = "img/".$fname;
move_uploaded_file($file_tmp,$target);
echo "uploaded succ !"."<br>";
}
}
?>
