Bizarre foreach problem...

[T_Hayden]

I am trying to collect all the variables I have from a form using the post method.
I have used this code numerous times before.

For some bizarre reason, when using the foreach statement to gather the POST variables into an array, it automatically turns the value of each peice of the an array to the value 'S'. I have absolutely no understanding why.

below is my code with commented output:

echo "Post: ". $_POST['title'];	// outputs correct Title from form.
foreach($_POST as $varname => $value){
     $sermon[$varname] = $value;
}
echo "sermon: " .$sermon['title']; // outputs: S

Thank-you,
Tim

That's weird. Try displaying the key and value while going through the foreach loop. Example:

echo "Post: ". $_POST['title'];    // outputs correct Title from form.
foreach($_POST as $varname => $value){
     $sermon[$varname] = $value;
     echo "key: $varname value: $value<br>";
     echo 'sermon: ', $sermon[$varname], '<br>'; // Should be the same!
}
echo "sermon: " .$sermon['title']; // outputs: S

Show us the result you get.

Well, that is very odd. Try doing a print_r on the $POST array before the foreach.
On the other hand, is this foreach really necesarry? It's no different to doing simply $sermon=$POST;

Yes, I agree. I'm just curious what the problem is (if any).
