Hi everyone, I am new to PHP and need help in making my script be able upload multiple images simultaneously. I need a large image and a thumb for each. I got this script from the web and made a few changes. I would really appreciate any help. The forms are much larger but i will try to get to the point and give what's necessary. Thanks in advance.
The following works for only one image:
The Database fields to insert to:
Establishment_mainphoto
Establishment_mainphoto_thumb
The form:
<form id="establishment_edit" name="establishment_edit" method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data" action="establishment_submit.php">
<input name="establishment_image" id="establishment_image" type="file" size="28"/><br>
<input type="submit" name="Submit" value="Submit"/>
</form>This is the establishment_submit form(a little lengthy):
<?php require_once('../Connections/connections.php'); ?>
<?php //maintain the session
if (!isset($_SESSION))
{
session_start();
}
?>
<?php
//retrieve data from Query String
$establishment_image = $_FILES['establishment_image']['name'];
//escape User Input to help prevent SQL Injection
$establishment_image= mysql_real_escape_string($establishment_image);
//redirect when successful
$establishmentAddSuccess = "establishment_add_success.php";
?>

?>How do I change establishment_submit so that I can add images into a Database:
Establishment_mainphoto
Establishment_mainphoto_thumb
Establishment_photo1
Establishment_photo1_thumb
Establishment_photo2

Establishment_photo3
Establishment_photo3_thumb
Establishment_photo4
Establishment_photo4_thumb
Establishment_photo5
Establishment_photo5_thumb
and a form like this?
