Wildcard expressions in forms

ph3n0m

Hi all

Just wondering (again), is there any way to display variables via a wildcard expression

say I have the variables

$c
$c1
$c3
$c6

Is there anyway to display this all variables of $c-type on the next page without having to pass each variable individually. Like in a form, with those elements mentioned above, when they are passed to the enxt page, I could use a wild card expression to display them all (would really help, since the numbers after $c would be randomonly generated.

Or am I talking through my bum again

Use an array.

If your variables are coming from form fields call them all 'c[]'

eg
<input type="text" name="c[1]" value="A">
<input type="text" name="c[3]" value="B">
<input type="text" name="c[6]" value="C">

Your receiving form will receive the variable 'c' as an array of values

c[1] = A
c[3] = B
c[6] = C

that was a fantastic piece of help - had tried everything except that.

Personal recommendation - you're a star 🙂
