Help retrieving an HTML array

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi ,
 I have a HTML page with a form in which there are some inputs like
these:

	input type=text  name=xname value="3303"
	input type=text  name=xname value="9854"
	....
	input type=text  name=xname value="n..."


the name of the input is always the same ( xname )

This generates automatically generates an array named xname in HTML 
with all the diferent values assigned to a diferent position.


My question is :

How do I retrieve that array from within PHP ?


I've tryed the following

	$xname=$_REQUEST['xname'];

and then
	echo $xname[0][0] ; // this returns nothing
	echo $xname[0] ;    // this returns only first digit of the first input 

None of the above seem to recognize that xname is ( in HTML ) an array .

Any help greatly appreciated

Thanks
Mauricio
