To see what is happening, look at the output of print_r($_FILES);

But, you should be doing it like this.

foreach ( $_FILES["archivo"] AS $file ) {
$field = $file['name'];
...
}

It works fine for me,

foreach ( $_FILES['archivo']['name'] as $file ) {
//echo $file;
}
if($file == ""){
echo "empty";
}else{
//continue...
}

Thanks a lot Jim!
