Form Question

[wrgill999]

i can best illustrate my question with this example:

i have a table with 300 rows with 1 field in each row.

i grab all of the values from the field and stick them into an array $test[0-299].

i read all of the info into editable text fields (form fields) and name the fields in a loop "field0 through field299"

for ($i=0;$i<300;$i++){
echo "<input type=text value=\"$test[$i]\" name=newvalue$i>";
}

now i want to be able to pass all of the data at once and manipulate it.

so if i pass it to this script:

for ($i=0;$i<200;$i++){
echo "$newvalue$i";
}

this does not work, obviously. how can i make this work? basically i need it to recongnize $newvalue0 through $newvalue299 as the containers holding the data. i want to be able to update all of the rows with multiple fields (columns) in each row at once.

sorry if this is a "no brainer."

thanks.

echo "$newvalue[$i]";

to create the array

You might think about passing all the text fields as a single array. If you re-write the inputs as:

echo "<input type=text value=\"$test[$i]\" name=\"newvalue[]\">"; 

then $newvalue is an array on the catching script...

foreach($newvalue as $k => $v) {
    echo "$k ===> $v";
}
