Hello,
How do I send an array from a form to another php page?I want to bundle
up some data from form fields in an array and send them together like that.
I must be missing something?
Thanks
Mike

<html><body>
<form action="<?php echo $_SERVER['PHP_SELF']?>" method="get">
<input type="text" name="myarray[]" value="you">
<input type="text" name="myarray[]" value="mean">
<input type="text" name="myarray[17]" value="like">
<input type="text" name="myarray[dog]" value="this?">
<input type="submit">
</form>
<?php print_r($_GET['myarray']); ?>
</body></html>

I am the original poster.(Different login-google).
To Kimmo: Now I have 2 ways of doing it. How long would it have been
for me to learn both ways.
So the reply to you're comment "Makes me wonder why people don't read
the documentation Wink" (which we all see at least once in every long
post) is
I (We) do read the documentation. But:
A. Sometimes we cant find what we're looking for fast enough.If we
knew the answer we wouldnt ask.
B. Sometimes we cant find what we're looking for .
C. More often you get better advice from other people.
Thanks,
Mike

Just my $.02 worth:

I'm doing the same thing with multiple multi-dimensional arrays that
must pass from one form to another. Advice received from this site
recommended storing the arrays in $_SESSION['array_name'] and it works
just fine.

There, you now have THREE ways to do the same thing. And I, too, DO
read the manuals, the docs, buy the book, subscribe to the mags, etc.,
and I STILL ask here because here (and other forums) provide REAL
WORLD ANSWERS that seem to work.

After all, we read these forums to learn and, if possible, to share
our knowledge and help someone else.
