How to Upload multiple files and store in a folder and array

 

 

 

Sometimes we need to upload more than one file at a time. This  tutorial helps  you how to upload many files and store them in  a folder and get their names stored in the PHP array. In this example,  there are two files. Create a folder in the server and copy the files given  below. Open index.php and check the result.

 

  • index.php

  • upload.php 

 

index.php : Contains front-end code(form for uploading files) and allows user to upload more than one file at a time. User selects multiple files, and clicks on submit button.

 

upload.php: will receives the files and stores them in a folder and also in an array. Next, using for loop, it prints the names of the uploaded files and the preview of the images.
