@NogDogMar 10.2005 — #Name your checkbox items in your form using the '[]' technique so that PHP recognizes them as array elements:
The PHP form-handler will now have an array $_POST['check'] populated for each selected checkbox, which you can just foreach() your way through:
$_POST in loop?
Will this not work (well, obviously it doesn’t or I wouldn’t be inquiring.) I need to call variable created in a previous form but don’t know how many I have until it is carried over. I have an input in my previous showing how many there are in the file. Now I’m trying to do this but it doesn’t produce anything.
[code=php]
for ($i=0;$i<=$num_of_lines;$i++)
{
$checkbox[$i] = $_POST[‘checkbox[$i]’];
}
This won’t even work for me.
[code=php]
for ($i=0;$i<=$num_of_lines;$i++)
{
$checkbox[$i] = $_POST[‘checkbox$i’];
}
