一种形式的两个图像输入

Question

I have a form in which I collect user informations. Its pretty big and it should have two inputs for image uploading. So it should have two images uploading inside one form. I have a datebase where I store the image URL, and the first image input works perfectly, but I have no idea how can I now upload second image and store its url in the datebase.

My form:

<form action="forms/credit.php" method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data">

<input type="file" name="file" class="input-text required-entry" required="">

<input type="file" name="cofile" class="input-text required-entry" required="">

<input type="submit" name="submit" value="Submit">

</form>

My php image handler:

$targetDir = "../images/";

$fileName = basename($_FILES["file"]["name"]);

$targetFilePath = $targetDir . $fileName;

$fileType = pathinfo($targetFilePath,PATHINFO_EXTENSION);

if(isset($_POST["submit"]) && !empty($_FILES["file"]["name"])){

    // Allow certain file formats

    $allowTypes = array('jpg','png','jpeg','gif','pdf');

    if(in_array($fileType, $allowTypes)){

        // Upload file to server

        if(move_uploaded_file($_FILES["file"]["tmp_name"], $targetFilePath)){

// Attempt insert query execution

$sql = "INSERT INTO credit (file, cofile) VALUES ('$fileName', '$fileName')";
if(mysqli_query($link, $sql) == false){
    echo "ERROR: Could not able to execute $sql. " . mysqli_error($link);
    exit;
} 

}
    }
    }

So as I said, it works fine for the first image but it doesn't work fine for second. I guess I would need to use array or something like that, but can someone give me a hint or a code preview on how can I do it? I'm fairly new to PHP and I'm still learning a lot.

Thanks!

You need to store the file the same way you store $_FILES["file"] . This can be accessed using $_FILES["cofile"]

Something along the lines of this should help (untested)

$fileName = basename($_FILES["file"]["name"]);

$targetFilePath = $targetDir . $fileName;

$cofileName = basename($_FILES["cofile"]["name"]);

$targetcoFilePath = $targetDir . $cofileName;

if(move_uploaded_file($_FILES["file"]["tmp_name"], $targetFilePath) &&  move_uploaded_file($_FILES["cofile"]["tmp_name"], $targetcoFilePath))
