A:
You can create an array by suffixing [] to the name of the field:
<from method="POST" enctype="multipart/form-data">
<input type="file" name="myfile[]" />
<input type="file" name="myfile[]" />
<input type="file" name="myfile[]" />
<!-- and so on -->
<input type="submit" name="submit" value="Submit" />
</form>
PHP
if (isset($_POST['submit']))
{
print_r($_FILES['myfile']);
}

@tibin: You can do like `echo $_FILES['myfile'][0]`

@tibin: have you added the `enctype="multipart/form-data"` to the `form` tag? see my answer above.
