Question Multiple field, file upload form

I have a perfectly working upload form at the moment, but I am having a hard time figureing out how to add the ability to generate other fields to submit along with the upload. Has anyone ever made a file upload form that submits other information such as the authors name (i'm uploading documents). Would it be hard to have a table generate from a form like that after a file was uploaded? I'm thinking I could store both the author and file in an mysql database, but would I have to separate that from the actual upload script?

Heres what I have so far:

PHP Code:
<?php 
  $numfile 
20
  
$servdir  "my file dir"
  if (
$_POST
 { 
    for (
$i=0;$i<$numfile;$i++) 
    { 
      if (
trim($_FILES['myfiles']['name'][$i])!=""
      { 
        
$newfile $servdir.$_FILES['myfiles']['name'][$i]; 
        
move_uploaded_file($_FILES['myfiles']['tmp_name'][$i], $newfile); 
        
$x++; 
      } 
    } 
 } 
  if (isset(
$x)&&$x>0) print "All went well.<br>"
  print 
"<form method='post' enctype='multipart/form-data'>"
  for(
$i=0;$i<$numfile;$i++) 
  { 
    print 
"<input type='file' name='myfiles[]' size='30'><br>"
  } 
  print 
"<input type='submit' name='action' value='Upload'>"
  print 
"</form>"
?>
