need help with script.

Anon

Hi all. I badly need help with my script. My script calculates time a
person has worked. I made it work but for only 1 day. Now I want to
be able to enter times for all different days and for it to work. But
I can't achieve that and I don't know what to do. I am just starting
out so I am not to experienced yet. All your help is greatly
appreciated.

Why not make the field names like hover[], mover[], so your PHP script will generate arrays for each day. Then you just use a foreach loop to calculate each day.

Anon

can you give me an example pls? I am really new at this.

Anon

This is a simple example that can be used for your code:

HTML Form:

and then, script.php

$count = count($POST['number']);
for ($i=0; $i<$count; $i++) {
print $POST['number'][$i] . ", ";
}
?>
