i can send an array(or multidimensional array) with a Form?

[ishan]

Hi to all, i'm new in this forum and i have a small question, i can do this:

<?php

echo "<form method='POST' action='due.php'>";

$arrayAppello1 = array("data" => '20.10.2004', "ora" => "9.00", nota => "scritto");
$arrayAppello2 = array("data" => '25.11.2004', "ora" => "9.00", nota => "orale");
$matriceEsami = array($arrayAppello1,$arrayAppello2);

echo "<input TYPE='hidden' NAME='matriceEsami' value='$matriceEsami '>";
echo "<input  type='submit' value='Invia' name='Invia'>&nbsp;</form>";

?>

if not, in wich way i can ? 🙁

any array, regardless of how many dimensions, can be passed via form, but not using that syntax. check it out:

<?php
$multiarray = array(
	1 => array(1,2,3),
	2 => array(4,5,6),
	3 => array(7,8,9)
);

echo '
<form action="" method="POST">
<input type="hidden" name="multiarray" value="' . htmlspecialchars(serialize($multiarray)) . '">
<input type="submit" name="submit" value="submit">
</form>
';

if (isset($_POST['submit']))
{
	echo '<pre>';
	print_r(unserialize(stripslashes($_POST['multiarray'])));
	echo '</pre>';
}
?>

ok, but it's normal that if i use this code i don't recive any output?

<?php

$multiarray = array("Gennaio" => array("day" => 20,"month" => 'Gennaio',"year" => 2004),
"Febbraio" => array("day" =>25,"month" => 'Febbraio',"year" => 2004)
);

echo '
<form action="due.php" method="POST">
<input type="hidden" name="multiarray" value="' . htmlspecialchars(serialize($multiarray)) . '">
<input type="submit" name="submit" value="submit">
</form>
';

?>

this is the page that display the data recived :

<?php

$mioArray = unserialize($HTTP_POST_VARS['multiarray']));

foreach ($mioArray as $key => $val)
{
    if(is_array($key))
    {
         foreach ($key as $val2)
         {
            echo $val2."<br>";
         }
    }
    else
    {
        echo $val;
    }
}

?>

<?php
$multiarray = array(
	'Gennaio' => array('day' => 20, 'month' => 'Gennaio', 'year' => 2004),
	'Febbraio' => array('day' =>25, 'month' => 'Febbraio', 'year' => 2004)
);

echo ' 
<form action="" method="POST">
<input type="hidden" name="multiarray" value="' . htmlspecialchars(serialize($multiarray)) . '">
<input type="submit" name="submit" value="submit">
</form>
';

if (isset($_POST['submit']))
{
	$mioArray = unserialize(stripslashes($HTTP_POST_VARS['multiarray'])); 

foreach ($mioArray as $key => $val) 
{ 
	if (is_array($val)) 
	{ 
		foreach ($val as $val2) 
		{ 
			echo $val2 . '<br>'; 
		} 
	} 
	else 
	{ 
		echo $val . '<br>'; 
	} 
}
}
?>
