[Resolved] Exploding all posted vars

Spudgun

This is probably really simple but me being me, I'm having a few troubles!!

I have a form with approximately 50 different fields - the majority are drop down boxes. I'm trying to check the $_POST variable and want to split out all variables passed when the form is submitted. I've tried using explode but am stuck on the syntax - e.g.

$items = explode('\n',$_POST[]);

Now I know this is wrong, and I have the following problems:
How can I use explode on the $POST - because I'm not sure what to split the array by.
And secondly, how do I pass in the complete $POST array so that all form field data and names will be collated ? Hopefully you can see what I'm trying to do. All help appreciated.

Thanks

I'm not sure about why you want to explode the variables

I'm working on a script where I want to load any posted variable into my session so I have

if (isset($HTTP_GET_VARS))
{
  foreach($HTTP_GET_VARS as $k => $v)
 	$HTTP_SESSION_VARS[$k] = $v;
}

if (isset($HTTP_POST_VARS))
{
  foreach($HTTP_POST_VARS as $k => $v)
 	$HTTP_SESSION_VARS[$k] = $v;
}

I'm using php3 so I'm stuck with the old $HTTP_POST_VARS while you can use the nicer $_POST. However I'm sure you get the gist of it.

Thanks Sarahk! That's done the trick.

Because the form is so big - and linked to mssql I wanted to make sure that my insert / update / delete statements would be correctly using the right variables.

Many thanks
