Hello,

I have an quick question.

I have the following form:

<form action="<?php echo $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'];?>" method="post" >
<?php linecount = 5 ?>
<?php
for (i=0; i< linecount;i++)
{
<input type="text" name[] value=field1>
<input type="text" name[] value=field2>
<input type="text" name[] value=field3>
<input type="text" name[] value=field4>
<input type="text" name[] value=field5>
<input type="text" name[] value=field6>
}
</form>

Then I try to split up the data:
foreach ($_POST['name'] as $namef)
{
echo $namef."<br/>;

}

Here is the problem. The multiple fields seem not to be splitting up
because the output seems to coming out in a single blob.

What I would like to do is split up the array based upon the field
entry so I can insert the info into the database.

Thank you.

Kevin

foreach ($_POST['name'] as $namef)
{
echo $namef."<br/>";
}

BTW - if you're using html, that should be <br> instead of <br/>.

Oops, pressed send too quick...

Also, your fields should be:

<input type="text" name="name[]" value=field1>

It is really an HTML question. Look up the input element in
your copy of the spec.
