Looping through files for FileReader, output always contains last value from loop

Question

I\'m using FileReader API to read files on local.

Answer 1

Instead of using var, use let as the declared variable only be used in one loop.

for (let i = 0; i < files.length; i++)  //for multiple files
    {
        let f = files[i];
        let name = files[i].name;
        alert(name);
        let reader = new FileReader();  
        reader.onload = function(e) {  
            // get file content  
            let text = e.target.result;
            let li = document.createElement("li");
            li.innerHTML = name + "____" + text;
            ul.appendChild(li);
        }
        reader.readAsText(f,"UTF-8");
    }
