Possible Duplicate:
Max file number can php upload at same time

I’m trying to upload multiple files using html and php

<input type="file" name="upload[]" accept="image/gif, image/jpeg, application/x-tar, application/x-zip-compressed"  multiple="true">

in php when using

print count($_FILES['upload']);

I always get maximum 5 files even if I’ve selected 20 in html.
What should I do to be able to upload, let’s say, 20 files at a time?

    you may need to change in php.ini file and increase the limit of max_file_uploads (it mustbe 5 in your server now)

    Also make sure to make relevant changes to these parameters (if needed)

    upload_max_filesize
    post_max_size
    max_input_time
    max_execution_time
    

    LevSahakyan solved the problem.

    He was using

    for($i=0; $i<count($_FILES['upload']); $i++)
    

    and because ‘upload’ is an array itself and has 5 parameters (name, type, tmp_name, error and size) it was uploading only 5 items.
    now he is using right parameter –

    for($i=0; $i<count($_FILES['upload']['name']); $i++)
