Your form will probably be more confusing than helpful, as that's not what people expect. I'd just have a single submit, and a single file input, like you see on all other forms. I've never seen a form like you're describing, and think it would be confusing for most people. Like some might think they need to fill the file input twice because there are 2, etc. And if they choose 2 different files, only one would actually get uploaded (unless you named the inputs differently). I really just wouldn't do this.

HTML Form - Submit and File field in multiple places - Same Form
I have a form in my Laravel app that has a number of text fields and one file upload field.
For the sake of ease, I wanted to put the file Upload Field and Submit button at the top AND bottom of the page, so users don't have to scroll down just to update their file.
The file field at the bottom of the page works. The one at the top doesn't.
But the submit button at the top works fine if I edit text fields, but not if I choose a file.
Only the file field at the bottom of the page works.
All fields are withing the Form tags.
Ideas?
