RE: [PHP-DB] Urgent help needed

Or you could hire John or me to do it for you. :-) Just kidding. I used the delimiting solution all over the place it is pretty simple. <>< Ryan -----Original Message----- From: John W.

Or, you could format 3 different elements like this: <input type="checkbox" name="del[<?=$id?>]" value="<?=$id?>"> <input type="hidden" name="title[<?=$id?>]" value="<?=$title?>"> <input type="hidden" name="path[<?=$id?>]" value="<?=$path?>"> Now, when a checkbox is checked, you'll end up with something like $del[1234]. Just pull the key or value and then you'll be able to determine $title[1234] and $path[1234] to use in your script. foreach($del as $id) { echo "Deleting id: $id, title: {$title[$id]}, path: {$path[$id]}"; } -- ---John Holmes...
