Multiple items

[Anon]

I have a form such as this:

<form method="get">
<input name="item" type="checkbox" value="1">Item 1

<input name="item" type="checkbox" value="2">Item 2

<input name="submit" type="submit" value="go">
</form>

When I submit this form I get the following URL: domain.com?item=1&item=2&value=go

How do I tell PHP to extract the same variable for the different values?

TIA,
Allen.

If you insist on having multiple checkboxes with the same name, end the name with [], e.g. &lt;input name="item[]" type="checkbox" value=1&gt;

When the form is submitted, the values will be dumped into an array called $item.

Thanks,

I just found a reference showing me how to do this. Just like your reply.
