Here is the code I have, and I'm wondering what I'm doing wrong that it doesn't display the name.
<form action = "self.php" method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data">
<input type="file" name="imageURL[]" id="imageURL" multiple="" />
<input type="submit" value="submit" name="submit" />
</form>
And the processing info that isn't working:
foreach ($_FILES['imageURL'] as $files[]) {
echo $files['file'];
}
Edit:
When changing my foreach loop to:
foreach ($_FILES['imageURL'] as $file) {
echo $file['name'];
}
Still nothing prints out.
However, when I do something like this:
foreach ($_FILES['imageURL']['name'] as $filename) {
echo $filename;
}
The filename does print. I don't know what that implies though.
SOLVED UPDATE:
As linked to by John Conde, the array interlace structure is different when uploading multiple files than when uploading a single file. To use foreach, we must restructure the array.
$files=array();
$fdata=$_FILES['imageURL'];
if(is_array($fdata['name'])){
for($i=0;$i<count($fdata['name']);++$i){
$files[]=array(
'name' =>$fdata['name'][$i],
'type' => $fdata['type'][$i],
'tmp_name'=>$fdata['tmp_name'][$i],
'error' => $fdata['error'][$i],
'size' => $fdata['size'][$i]
);
}
}else $files[]=$fdata;
NOW we can use foreach to loop:
foreach ($files as $file) {
echo $file['name'];
}
Try
foreach ($_FILES['imageURL'] as $file) {
echo $file['name'];
}
UPDATE:
Google found this tutorial which may help you
Instead of using for() and recounting the number of items in the array, you can use a more elegant foreach()
$files=array();
$fdata=$_FILES['file'];
if(is_array($fdata['name'])){
foreach ($fdata['name'] as $i => $d) {
$files[] = array(
'name' => $d,
'tmp_name' => $fdata['tmp_name'][$i]
);
}
}
else $files[]=$fdata;
