Hello guyz,
I need some help about downloading MULTIPLE files on php. I've used while loop by checking if the checkboxes were checked but when I continued on clicking the download button, all the system downloads is just 1 file. Why is that?.. any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks.
I've provided the codes for easier tracing (I've included two files----Upload(w/c is working fine) and the download)
<--uploadserver.php (file 1)-->
<?php
echo $reload=$_SERVER['PHP_SELF'];
?>
<form action="<?$reload?>" method="post" name="fileForm" enctype="multipart/form-data">
File to upload:
<table>
<tr><td><input name="upfile" type="file"></td></tr>
<tr><td><input type="submit" name="submitBtn" value="Upload"></td></tr>
</table>
</form>
<?php
if(isset($_POST['submitBtn']))
{
if(file_exists("d:/Upload")==0)
echo mkdir("d:/Upload");
$target_path="d:/Upload/";
$x="d";
$file_name=$_FILES['upfile']['name'];
if(file_exists("d:/Upload/$file_name")==0)
{
echo '<br>Target Path: '.$target_path=$target_path.basename($_FILES['upfile']['name']).'';
if(move_uploaded_file($_FILES['upfile']['tmp_name'], $target_path))
{
echo "<br>File:". basename($_FILES['upfile']['name']).' uploaded...';
echo "<br>Working directory :".getcwd();
}
else
echo error;
}
else
echo "<br>Error: File duplication";
}
?>
