upload library with dynamic $_FILES - El Forum - 03-23-2010

Hi,
I'm trying to upload a dynamic number of files but It seems like the upload library won't support it, does anyone know if there's a solution for this?
Example:
Code:
<input type="file" name="img[]" />
<input type="file" name="img[]" />This would then result in an array like this:
Code:
array(5) {
["name"]=>
array(2) {
[0]=>
string(23) "file1.png"
[1]=>
string(26) "file2.png"
}
["type"]=>
array(2) {
[0]=>
string(9) "image/png"
[1]=>
string(9) "image/png"
}
["tmp_name"]=>
array(2) {
[0]=>
string(23) "C:\wamp\tmp\php8EBB.tmp"
[1]=>
string(23) "C:\wamp\tmp\php8EBC.tmp"
}
["error"]=>
array(2) {
[0]=>
int(0)
[1]=>
int(0)
}
["size"]=>
array(2) {
[0]=>
int(187753)
[1]=>
int(197073)
}

Solved it by creating a new function in MY_Upload file which will reformat the array so I later on can loop through it:
Code:
function split_files($input = 'userfile')
{
$tmp = array();
foreach($_FILES[$input] as $key => $data)
{
foreach($data as $i => $name)
{
$tmp[$i][$key] = $name;
}
}
$_FILES = $tmp;
}
