yeah, I am thinking I should make that a function and call it from a variable.
what do you think? I think I need a php.net 'arrays for dummies'.

You echo to the page not to a variable.

php.net is your friend.

Hi, this is my first post so forgive me if I missed a rule and do something wrong.

I have this code,

echo $_SERVER['PHP_SELF']."?";
foreach ($_GET as $urlvar=>$urlval)
echo $urlvar."=".$urlval."&";

It works by it’s self.
I want to insert the output in a table. Is there a way to ‘echo’ into a variable(i.e. make the output of this echo the value of a variable) or am I on the wrong track all together?

Na just go to php.net and do a search.
Look up -

foreach()

There are examples to learn from php.net and other users there.
May not be a copy and paste job, you'll most likely want to adopt things to your situation, but the fundamentals are all there. Best way/place to learn IMO.

Then I would go and google MySQL INSERT or what ever SQL Lang your using.
Again, I would go to the php.net link that pops up. :)
Those two things should get you on track for what it looks like your trying to do.

if your not there after those two things, look up
array() php

and so on...

..but your not far off with what you have, you just need to swap a $var = with the echo text looks like. Then use $var in your INSERT statement like so. $sql = "INSERT .... (var, ... ) Value( '".mysql_real_escape_string($var)."', .... )"; The single quotes are only needed for strings too. For variables that are integers (numbers), you don't need them.

You may also want to go ahead and look into how to set up your mysql- >php scripts with mysqli as well. Like using mysqli_real_escape_string() instead. I think mysql_ is getting depreciated. Instead of learning one way and then finding out you have to migrate later. :-/

Please correct me if I am wrong anyone.

HTH,

Best,
