Of course, you could do this whatever way you want. The point of the article was to illustrate how to convert PHP's file upload array into something useful. Pat, do it whatever way you want! pepkin88's foreach example in the comments above is more efficient and easier to read than what I did in the post. for the last two posters; i wrote this article because I was doing a HTML5 multiple file upload for KFM (a file manager), so that’s why “kfm” is in the input.

The point of the article was to illustrate how to convert PHP’s file upload array into something useful.

Pat, do it whatever way you want!

pepkin88′s foreach example in the comments above is more efficient and easier to read than what I did in the post.

I misunderstood the original "why can't you use foreach()" as being about the original array. yes, good point. in fact, I've no idea why I used for() - maybe I was tired when I wrote it ;-) ah!

yes, good point. in fact, I’ve no idea why I used for() – maybe I was tired when I wrote it ;-)

I'm missing a point, why do you put name for input "kfm_file" (without brackets) in the first place. Whether the "multiple" argument is supported or not, you only operate on array, which make the code so much simpler, either JavaScript or PHP. Also you could use foreach loop as stated above. Unless I missed some use cases in which those steps are required, then it could make sense. Cheers. I must ask: why is this so complicated?

Sorry, wrong :oops:

foreach ($fdata['name'] as $i => $d) {
$files[] = array(
'name' => $d,
'tmp_name' => $fdata['tmp_name'][$i]
);
}

That’s better.

foreach ($fdata as $i => $d) {

'name' => $d,
'tmp_name' => $fdata['tmp_name'][$i] // nasty comma
