Multiple File uploads with php

    Hi all,

    I'm designing a php form that requires people to upload several different files to a server.

    All I'm doing at the moment - is asking the user to choose a file with

    <input type = "file" ...

    and then echoing the filenames back out, there is no uploading taking place just yet.

    There are four of these file input boxes. When one is chosen, everything works fine. But if two files are chosen ( in separete input boxes) then I get an error which says that the web page is unavailable or has been interrupted.

    Anyone any ideas? Thanks

    Have you different names on the input boxes ?

    also is all the inputs contained within the fieldset of the form?

    could you post up an example otherwise all anyone can do here is second guess.

    Are you using an array variable name? eg. myfiles[]?

    Alternatively there is a jquery plugin that I used myself recently and it's pretty decent.
