Hey everyone,
A bit of a puzzle here, dont know if this is a JS problem or PHP or FF or .... just me.
(My money is on the last one :p )
Here's what I am trying to do:
In a form I have a listbox with the values 1-5, and under the listbox i have a <TD> with the id of "recips" (like so: <TD id='recips">
I have a onChange event linked to the list box and depending on what number the client picks it should dynamically put the number of text boxes there, here is the JS code:
///// ############### Start JS code ############
function change_no_of_recipients()
{
var nr=document.mainform.no_of_friends.options[document.mainform.no_of_friends.selectedIndex].value;
if(nr>5){nr=5;} // max number of recipients
var msg = "";
for (var x = 1; x <= nr; x++)
{
msg += '<table width="50%" border="0" cellspacing="2" cellpadding="2">' +
'<tr>' +
'<td nowrap="nowrap">'+ x +'. Recipient\'s name:</td>' +
'<td><input type="text" name="rec_name[]" id="rec_name[]" /></td>' +
'<td nowrap="nowrap">Recipient\'s email:</td>' +
'<td><input type="text" name="rec_email[]" id="rec_email[]" /></td>' +
'</tr>' +
'<tr>' +
'</table>';
}
document.getElementById('recips').innerHTML=msg;
}
///// ##################### End JS code ################
So far on the page everything is working, but when I click the submit button this is my PHP processing script:
<?php
print_r($_REQUEST);
?>
It shows me everything that has been submitted but NOT any of the above dynamically made boxes values... but get this, it DOES show me all values... in IE7 _not_ in FF (am using 2.0.0.13)
Anybody else face anything like this?
Is this a bug in FF? Is $_REQUEST wrong to catch this?
Dont know what the @#$@ to do... ANY help even a link to a site which can shed a little light would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

Hi Ryan,
Since I'm relatively new to PHP I could be off on this, but I'd say yes,
$_REQUEST is wrong. I would think you'd want to use $_POST to receive
the incoming values from a form.
