storing multiple text values into an array when a check box is checked.

[chineerat]

Hi!
I am trying to store multiple text values into an array when a check box is checked.
for example when row1 checkbox is checked the values row1col1 and row1col2 are stored in an array. note however row1col1 and row1col2 are editable and not readonly.
for example:

<table border="1"> <form id="form1" name="form1" method="post" action="">   <tr>     <td>row1       <input type="checkbox" name="row1" id="row1" /> (when checked the text fields are editable)         </td>     <td>       <input name="col1" type="text" id="col1" value="row1col1" /></td>     <td>       <input name="col2" type="text" id="col2" value="row1col2" /></td>  </tr>      <tr>     <td>row2       <input type="checkbox" name="row2" id="row2" />(when checked the text fields are editable)            </td>     <td>       <input name="r2c1" type="text" id="r2c1" value="row2col1" /></td>     <td>       <input name="r2c2" type="text" id="r2c2" value="row2col2" /></td>  </tr>  </form>  </table>

can anyone help?

IF the values are editable, then you should probably decide if you want to grab them when the checkbox is checked or whether you want these values to be collected when someone clicks a button later (e.g., 'submit' or 'go').

I would recommend naming your checkboxes something like row_1 instead because then you could just split the name of the checkbox at the underscore and use the number part to determine which inputs to grab.
