In Multiple file Upload upload single file in new folder in PHP

Question

In PHP I am uploading a multiple file. But I want upload each file in different folder.

I Upload 9 file at a time.

So, Current Scenario is:- Ex:- Main folder -> pdf-files ->all uploaded pdf files

But I want as:- Main Folder->pdf-files->New Folder->pdf-file-1. Again, Main Folder->pdf-files->New Folder->pdf-file-2. Main Folder->pdf-files->New Folder->pdf-file-3. ....... So On

Here is my upload.php file:-

$output_dir = "pdf-files/";
if(isset($_FILES["myfile"]))
{
    $ret = array();

    $error =$_FILES["myfile"]["error"];
   {

        if(!is_array($_FILES["myfile"]['name'])) //single file
        {
            $fileName = $_FILES["myfile"]["name"];
            move_uploaded_file($_FILES["myfile"]["tmp_name"],$output_dir. $_FILES["myfile"]["name"]);
            $ret[$fileName]= $output_dir.$fileName;

        }
        else
        {
                $fileCount = count($_FILES["myfile"]['name']);
                for($i=0; $i < $fileCount; $i++)
              {
                $fileName = $_FILES["myfile"]["name"][$i];
                $ret[$fileName]= $output_dir.$fileName;
              $ret[$fileCount] = $fileCount;
                move_uploaded_file($_FILES["myfile"]["tmp_name"][$i],$output_dir.$fileName );
              }

        }
    }
    echo json_encode($ret);

}

In each iteration of your for loop, add the index to the the output_dir as the name of the New Folder.that way you get a new folder for every file.

$output_dir = "pdf-files/";
if(isset($_FILES["myfile"]))
{
 $ret = array();

 $error =$_FILES["myfile"]["error"];
{

    if(!is_array($_FILES["myfile"]['name'])) //single file
    {
        $fileName = $_FILES["myfile"]["name"];
        move_uploaded_file($_FILES["myfile"]["tmp_name"],$output_dir. $_FILES["myfile"]["name"]);
        $ret[$fileName]= $output_dir.$fileName;

    }
    else
    {
            $fileCount = count($_FILES["myfile"]['name']);
            for($i=0; $i < $fileCount; $i++)
          {
            $fileName = $_FILES["myfile"]["name"][$i];
            $ret[$fileName]= $output_dir.$fileCount."/".$fileName;
          $ret[$fileCount] = $fileCount;
            move_uploaded_file($_FILES["myfile"]["tmp_name"][$i],$output_dir.$fileCount."/".$fileName );
          }

    }
}
echo json_encode($ret);
}
