@FangFeb 17.2005 — You would probable be timed out or prevented from uploading such a large amount of data by the server.

@96turnerriFeb 18.2005 — <i>
</i>&lt;form...........&gt;
&lt;?php
for($x = 1; $x &lt;= 100; $x++) {
echo "&lt;input name="userfile$x" type="file"&gt;";
}
?&gt;
&lt;/form&gt;


[code=php]
//php proccessor
<?php
$file_dir = $_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT']."/path/to";
foreach( $HTTP_POST_FILES as $file_name => $file_array ) {
$file_name = $file_array['name'];
if( is_uploaded_file( $file_array['tmp_name'] ) ) {
move_uploaded_file( $file_array['tmp_name'], "$file_dir/$file_name") or die ("Couldn't Copy");
}
}
?>

@pelegk1authorFeb 18.2005 — the point is to upload an unkown number of files in advance

the 100 was just an example of big number of files

and dont forget that in your way the user must go over every file and select it to upload it
Copy linkTweet thisAlerts:
@FangFeb 18.2005 — I think you will have to do it with activeX or Java. Only Opera supports multiple file upload.

@bokehFeb 18.2005 — maybe you could have a simple form that says:

"How many files do you wish to upload"

The user would enter the number into a text box and submit it and then the php script would then build a form with the correct number of file upload boxes using the loop function.

@pelegk1authorFeb 18.2005 — beacuse in the link above there is example how its done in asp+some object

[B]and dont forget that in your way the user must go over every file and select it to upload it [/B][/QUOTE]

and in the other version you dont have to select files you wish to upload? what do they do magically appear or something
Copy linkTweet thisAlerts:
@pelegk1authorFeb 19.2005 — in the other way you can tell it to upload all the folder!

@96turnerriFeb 20.2005 — why not just upload a zip file and get php to extract it on the server
Copy linkTweet thisAlerts:
@FangFeb 20.2005 — [i]Originally posted by pelegk1 [/i]

[B]because in the link above there is example how its done in asp[COLOR=red]+some object[/COLOR]

so i thought maybe in php its possible too? [/B][/QUOTE]

It's the client-side files system you have to interact with - ActiveX or similar
Copy linkTweet thisAlerts:
@pelegk1authorFeb 20.2005 — that execlly what's i nthe link
Copy linkTweet thisAlerts:
@96turnerriFeb 20.2005 — so why are you sying some object if you know how to do it? and any suggestion made you just say no thats not how THEY do it or similar
