<input ... multiple> doesn't work

[flplv]

In case you have a multiple file selection input, such as

<input type="file" name="uploadedFiles" multiple>

it won't work. Multiple files will be uploaded, but they will not appear in the files tree since this line

return req.files[fieldname] = {

(index.js line 53)
will be called one time per file, replacing the last file from the object.

I'll submit a patch in this Issue soon.

This is a possible patch: flplv@2dcbb13?diff=split

The problem is that it will change the req.files[fieldname] from an Object to an Array, which will break backward compatibility.

I believe the correct solution is to store files in req.files[fieldname + "Multiple"], I just couldn't find a way to check if input is multiple file...

@flplv it can be done without breaking bc:

if(req.files.hasOwnProperty(fieldName) && req.files[fieldName] instanceof Array == false){
    var tmp = req.files[fieldName];//temporarily move first file into var
    req.files[fieldName] = [tmp]; //reassign to array containing first file
}
else if(req.files.hasOwnProperty(fieldName) && req.files[fieldName] instanceof Array){
    req.files[fieldName].push( newFileHere ); //push new file into array
} else {
    //treat as single file, as we do now
}

I hope this makes sense. i'm in the bed lol

Thanks.. gonna test it and create a PR.

I believe #18 fixes this. Updated and published to NPM registry.
