Upload Multiple Files with PHP and JQuery

I have been trying my hands on PHP lately, so far so good until I hit a brick wall. Here's a little piece of code that I have. It's allowing me to upload a single file, but what I want is to be able to upload multiple files.

Here's the PHP and HTML files:

<html>
<head>
  <meta charset="utf-8" />
  <title>Ajax upload form</title>

<script src="//ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.10.2/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="https://www.google.com/jsapi"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">

    function sendfile(){
        var fd = new FormData();  

        for (var i = 0, len = document.getElementById('myfile').files.length; i < len; i++) {
            fd.append("myfile", document.getElementById('myfile').files[i]);                
        }

        $.ajax({
          url: 'uploadfile.php',
          data: fd,
          processData: false,
          contentType: false,
          type: 'POST',      
          success: function(data){
            alert(data);
          }
        });         
    }
  </script>

</head>
<body>
    <form action="uploadfile.php" method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data" id="form-id">

    <p><input id="myfile" type="file" name="myfile" multiple=multiple/>
    <input type="button" name="upload" id="upload" value="Upload" onclick="sendfile()" id="upload-button-id"  /></p>
    </form>
</body>
</html>

And the PHP file:

<?php

    $target = "uploadfolder/"; 
    //for($i=0; $i <count($_FILES['myfile']['name']); $i++){
        if(move_uploaded_file($_FILES['myfile']['tmp_name'], $target.$_FILES['myfile']['name'])) { 
            echo 'Successfully copied'; 

        }else{       
            echo 'Sorry, could not copy';
        }   
    }// 

?>

Any help would be highly appreciated.
