Trouble Passing This Array

[Anon]

Can you pass an array through a hiddent field? If so how do you call it?

$guys = array ("Bob", "Lary", "Joe");

echo "<input type='hidden' name='array' value='$guys[]'>";

This wont work will it?

[daarius]

you need to do:
<pre>
<input type='hidden' name='guys[]' value='Bob'>
<input type='hidden' name='guys[]' value='Lary'>
<input type='hidden' name='guys[]' value='Joe'>
</pre>

and on php side, when the form is submitted, you can get this data via $_REQUEST['guys'] (which will be array). so your output will be:

<pre>
$REQUEST['guys'][0] => Bob
$REQUEST['guys'][1] => Lary
$_REQUEST['guys'][2] => Joe
</pre>
