Uploading multiple files using Zend framework- revised

In my previous post I discuss, how to upload multiple files. Sorry for that because I didn’t check the method. And I haven’t tested that on my system and don’t know whether it will be working or not. However All other example I provided in my articles are tested and working fine.
To find an appropriate way of uploading file, I have done it with other method. This is quite helpful and easy.
Fisrt create your form as

class forms_SimpleForm extends Zend_Dojo_Form
{
public function __construct($options = null)
{
parent::__construct($options);
$this->setMethod(‘post’);
$this->setAttrib(‘enctype’, ‘multipart/form-data’);

$file1= $this->createElement(‘file’,'file1′);
$file1->setLabel(‘File1:’);

$file2= $this->createElement(‘file’,'file2′);
$file2->setLabel(‘File2:’)
->addValidator(’size’,'10′);

$submit=$this->createElement(’submit’,’submit’);

$this->addElements(array(
$file1,
$file2,
$submit
));
}
}
?>

The code above is very simple.
We are first creating two file fields and a submit button and then add It to the form using addElements method.
Next in the controller/Action wirte code as

if($this->getRequest()->isPost()){
if($form->isValid($_POST)) {
$upload = new Zend_File_Transfer_Adapter_Http();
$upload->addValidator(‘Size’, false, 20000, ‘file2′);
$upload->setDestination(‘tmp/’);
$files = $upload->getFileInfo();
foreach ($files as $file => $info) {
if($upload->isValid($file)){
$upload->receive($file);
}
}
}
}

In the above code we first check whether form is posted and valid. if yes then
We create adapter. Add validator to the file2 and set destination directory.
Next we get info by using $files = $ adapter ->getFileInfo(); using foreach loop and check each file. If file is valid then we upload it other wise leave ignore it.
You can even show error messages if you like. However I am not going to descuss how to handle and show error messages.
