file upload problem

Hello. I have a form with two input file fields for uploading file:

<form name="mynews" action="news.php?action=update&add=<?php print
$id;?>" method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data">

<input type="file" name="file1" size="20">
<input type="file" name="file2" size="20">

When I post I do:
print_r($_FILES);

this is the output:
Array ( [file] => Array ( [name] => [type] => [tmp_name] => [error] => 4
[size] => 0 ) [file1] => Array ( [name] => PlhroforikhMetaptuxiako.pdf
[type] => application/pdf [tmp_name] => /tmp/phpIIYUYT [error] => 0
[size] => 48755 ) [file2] => Array ( [name] => [type] => [tmp_name] =>
[error] => 4 [size] => 0 ) )

The seconf file is never uploaded no matter what I tried.
Upload_file_size is 8MB which is ok for both files.

what else can I check?

Make two forms, with one upload per form and a javascript, that sends
both forms at once.

IMHO per form only one file can be uploaded (?).

What does the rest of the form look like? print_r is showing file,
file1, file2. Is there a form field you're not showing in your code
above?

Read this section of the Php manual and be sure to look at Related
configuration notes. Other php.ini settings besides upload_max_filesize
can effect post
uploadshttp://de.php.net/manual/en/features.file-upload.php#features.file-upload.post-method

How this can be done? Two forms with one submit? and how do I get the
data? on only one POST?

1. you can't submit more than 1 form at once, even with javascript.
2. you can have as many file fields as you want, if you name them
name="file[]"
if you have the extended chm manual search in the notes for "file upload" or
can search online, http://us2.php.net/manual/en/features.file-upload.php in
the notes. you will see a number of code examples of how to handle
multi-file uploads.
