[Resolved] how can I use $_POST[array]?

[Dr_Flink]

I have this array, $hscoorer[], wich is containing severel names. The arrays values is loaded from a form. I want to be able to print out one of the values.
This works:

print $_POST['hscoorer'];

But it only prints out the last value

So I have tried this, but it doesn't work:

print $_POST['hscoorer[1]'];

So, how should I do to print out the specific value?

$_POST['hscoorer'][0]

And make sure the values in the form are named correctly.

EDITET: It did work, I renamed the select name 🙂. But I still want to use the $a insted of the index number, if u know what I mean.//

...hmm, don't think I follow.

this is my code:

if (isset($_POST['save'])) {

$save = explode("-", $_POST['endresult']);

if ($save[0] != 0){
	print '<b>Hemmalagets målgörare:</b><br>';
		$a = 0;
		while ($a < $save[0]) {
			$a++;
			print $a . ':' . ' ' . '
				<select name="hscoorer[]">'; 
					$query = mysql_query("select * from players ORDER by name") or die(mysql_error());  
					print '<option></option>';
					if (isset($_POST['save']) && $hscoorer != ' ') { 
						print '<option selected>' . $_POST['hscoorer'][0] . '</option>';
					}
					while($row = mysql_fetch_array($query)) { 
						print '<option />' . $row['name'];
					}
				print '
				</select>
			' . '<br>';
		}
}

When I tryed $_POST['hscoorer'][0], I only got the first letter... I also wonder if I'm able too use the $a insted of the index number?

the 0 was just an example of the first index, but you can use a variable that contains a number of the index too.

I tryed this:

print '<option selected>' . $_POST['hscoorer'][$a] . '</option>';

But it only prints out the next name from $row['name']

This may work for your <select> items:

<?php

foreach ( $yourvariable as $value )
	{

	print "$value";

	}

?>

This should list the VALUE of your selection.
