Hello, (I know that this is a oft-repeated subject, but the annotated manuals are offline for the time being and the php3 docs don't seem to be correct) has anyone noticed that php4 seems to handle multiple file uploads differently than is documented? I am trying to upload multiple files using the userfile[] array and am noticing that: 1) userfile does not appear as part of HTTP_POST_VARS array 2)userfile_name, userfile_size and userfile_type arrays do not exist after uploading , and the contents of userfile[] seem to go something like this: for the file foo.gif : userfile[0] = foo.gif - (seems ok - this is the name of the file) userfile[1] = image/gif - (seems to be the file type) userfile[2] = /tmp/php1Nrzxb - (seems to be the location of the temp file) for multiple files this pattern continues - userfile[3] , [4], and [5] would be the name, type and temp location of the second file in the array. This is inconsistent with the documentation. Is this the way php4 handles the uploads? and is there a way to get the filesize of the uploaded file? FWIW: server is php4 compiled on Linux, using netscape 4.7 client from a macintosh (since I am subscribed to digest I would appreciate replies directly to me - thanks!!)
