Two fileUploads inside one form

Hi!
I am using Primefaces 3.3. I need to use two fileUploads in advanced mode inside one form. The problem that I encounter is that when I upload some file using the first fileUpload it seems that the second fileUpload gets also activated since it shows the same file name to upload, although I don't click on the second fileUpload.
How can I solve this problem?
Thanks in advance.

You need to publish your code.
You need to read the User Guide.

I have seen a lot of posts about having multiple file uploads in the same form and I ask myself why?
Having more than one on a page can be justified sure but in the same form?
You can easily split them up across multiple forms even inside the same page.
I would also recommend using different beans dependent on where and why files are being uploaded.
You can reduce DRY conflicts by using a suitable superclass to handle the donkey work and extend them for each bean.
The reason I suggest this is because so many people try packing everything into one bean (where at least 2 are recommended, one request bean as receiver and either a session, view or conversation bean to track things after the uploads are finished) and end up with a mass of event methods, file properties and hardcoded dross.
