[RESOLVED] DoWhile Look and $_FILES['file$i']['name']

[Jabbamonkey]

I have several files I am uploading at once ... I have a do-while statement that will upload each file ... but I dont know how to make the following line work in the do-while statement...

$fileonserver = $pathonserver . basename($_FILES['file$i']['name']);

it needs to show ...

$fileonserver = $pathonserver . basename($_FILES['file1']['name']); // when $i=1

... and so-on, for each value of i. How do I write out this line correctly, so it works in the do-while statement.

Hi,

PHP doesn't parse variables inside single quote strings (only inside double quote strings).

$fileonserver = $pathonserver . basename($_FILES['file'.$i]['name']);

or

$fileonserver = $pathonserver . basename($_FILES["file$i"]['name']);

I would prefer the first one.

Why even use the do while and just use a while loop? Is there something that must absolutely be done regardless of the conditionin the while loop?

[Jabbamonkey]

Ok, so I use a while loop ...

I still have the same problem.

[tsinka]

Please post more code (the relevant loop code).

tsinka, missed your first post. That worked great. Thanks for the help!
