Serialize

Anon

HI,
i'm Leo, just a beginner at PHP. i got a problem while i try passing array into another page by <input type =hidden>
1st page
ex:employid_arr array();
nb: $employid_arr[1] = E011
$employid_arr[2 = E02
$employid_arr[3 = E045
$employid_arr[4 = E074

$employid_arr = serialize($employid_arr);
#employid_arr = urlencode($employid_arr);

2nd page
$employid_arr = urldecode($employid_arr);
$employid_arr = unserialize($employid_arr);

when i'm try to printf $employid_arr value, i got = a:4:{i:0;s:4:"E011";i:1;s:3:"E02";i:2;s:5:"PS045";i:3;s:5:"PS074";}

the problem is, how could i get value of array that i'm passing from 1st page,
can any one tell me, pls URGENT...

okay, what you need to do is a stripslashes before you do the unserialize.
you should read the manual on php.net and the "User Contributed Notes", these notes contain often the things you should know or do when coding.

i hoop i helped you out.
