Continuing on in their latest series (begun with this part), DevShed has posted part two of their look at working with files in PHP - "Uploading Files and Navigating Directories in PHP".

They jump right in, giving you the needed settings for your php.ini file to get the examples to work (mainly for the file uploads). They explain what a file upload form looks like and what some of the potential error codes could be.

The code comes next, showing a simple file upload form taking in the file, moving it off to another directory, and if there are errors, displaying them. The next obvious step up from a single file upload is the multiple file upload, and they show how to use PHP's form handling of arrays to accomplish this.

Finally, they include a simple little script to read the directory the files are in and display the information about them (like size file, name, and modified date).
