This parameter is an associative array of the form
<literal>array("optionname" => &lt;boolean&gt;, ...)</literal>. Currently
supported options are:

<para>
<literal>"upsert"</literal>
</para>
<para>
If no document matches <parameter>$criteria</parameter>, a new
document will be inserted.
</para>
<para>
If a new document would be inserted and
<parameter>$new_object</parameter> contains atomic modifiers
(i.e. <literal>$</literal> operators), those operations will be
applied to the <parameter>$criteria</parameter> parameter to create
the new document. If <parameter>$new_object</parameter> does not
contain atomic modifiers, it will be used as-is for the inserted
document. See the upsert examples below for more information.
</para>

<listitem>
<para>
<literal>"multiple"</literal>
</para>
<para>
All documents matching $criteria will be updated.
<function>MongoCollection::update</function> has exactly the opposite
behavior of <function>MongoCollection::remove</function>: it updates
one document by default, not all matching documents. <emphasis>It is
recommended that you always specify whether you want to update
multiple documents or a single document</emphasis>, as the database
may change its default behavior at some point in the future.

<title><function>MongoCollection::update</function> upsert examples</title>
<para>
Upserts can simplify code, as a single line can create the document if it
does not exist (based on <parameter>$criteria</parameter>), or update an
existing document if it matches.
</para>
<para>
In the following example, <parameter>$new_object</parameter> contains an
atomic modifier. Since the collection is empty and upsert must insert a new
document, it will apply those operations to the
<parameter>$criteria</parameter> parameter in order to create the document.
</para>
<programlisting role="php">
<![CDATA[
<?php
$c->drop();
$c->update(
array("uri" => "/summer_pics"),
array('$inc' => array("page hits" => 1)),
array("upsert" => true)
);
var_dump($c->findOne());
?>

</screen>
<para>
If <parameter>$new_object</parameter> does not contain atomic modifiers
(i.e. <literal>$</literal> operators), upsert will use
<parameter>$new_object</parameter> as-is for the new document. This matches
the behavior of a normal update, where not using atomic modifiers causes the
document to be overwritten.
</para>
<programlisting role="php">
<![CDATA[
<?php
$c->drop();
$c->update(
array("name" => "joe"),

<title><function>MongoCollection::update</function> multiple example</title>
<para>
By default, <function>MongoCollection::update</function> will only update
the first document matching <parameter>$criteria</parameter> that it
finds. Using the "multiple" option can override this behavior, if needed.
</para>
<para>
This example adds a "gift" field to every person whose birthday is in the
next day.
