The Script:
<?php
if (isset($_POST['submit'])) {
$j = 0; //Variable for indexing uploaded image
$target_path = "uploads/"; //Declaring Path for uploaded images
for ($i = 0; $i < count($_FILES['file']['name']); $i++) {//loop to get individual element from the array
$validextensions = array("jpeg", "jpg", "png"); //Extensions which are allowed
$ext = explode('.', basename($_FILES['file']['name'][$i]));//explode file name from dot(.)
$file_extension = end($ext); //store extensions in the variable
$target_path = $target_path . md5(uniqid()) . "." . $ext[count($ext) - 1];//set the target path with a new name of image
$j = $j + 1;//increment the number of uploaded images according to the files in array
if (($_FILES["file"]["size"][$i] < 100000) //Approx. 100kb files can be uploaded.
&& in_array($file_extension, $validextensions)) {
if (move_uploaded_file($_FILES['file']['tmp_name'][$i], $target_path)) {//if file moved to uploads folder
echo $j. ').<span id="noerror">Image uploaded successfully!.</span><br/><br/>';
} else {//if file was not moved.
echo $j. ').<span id="error">please try again!.</span><br/><br/>';
}
} else {//if file size and file type was incorrect.
echo $j. ').<span id="error">***Invalid file Size or Type***</span><br/><br/>';
}
}
}
?>
This script also uses javascript for multiple image upload.
This script works fine, though when the multiple files get moved into the "uploads" folder the file names come out like this:
"2f594262c1f8fb56c39cc01d4543bcb9.jpg"
"2f594262c1f8fb56c39cc01d4543bcb9.jpgf00008a16882f01d2bd7ed6d9805a4bf.jpg"
