Hey guys, as the title asks
how can i upload multiple files with PHP using only 1 file upload field in the form?
It probably needs to be used with the html5 multiple attribute on the file field but how do i handle it

Also i would appreciate if it could come with a progress bar
Any guide / code sample would help

Thanks.

For multiple file uploads and a progress bar you would be better off using Flash and/or Silverlight. Trying todo progress bars with PHP is near impossible.
