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.
This will NOT automatically generate an array. 'xname' will be equal to
the last one sent in the post. If you want an array, name your form
fields as such, 'xname[]'
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 .
Because it isn't. Name your fields the way I've shown above, and you
can access them as an array....
$_REQUEST['xname'][0]
$_REQUEST['xname'][1]
$_REQUEST['xname'][2]
So on, and so forth.

if i understand well you need to get an array from html post
if you use the same name for your html fields you automatically have
an array in $_POST
eg
input type=text name=myfield value="field_1"
input type=text name=myfield value="field_2"
you'll get the array ar_myfield = $_POS['myfield']
you should achieve the same result using myfield[key] in the name of html

Newbe question:
How does one convert an array into a HTML GET request easely? Are

Same for HTML POST requests.
Thanks,
Martin.
