Re: Sending multiple items via a single form field

can somebody tell me what the hell does mysql_fetch_assoc do ??? thx Micah Stevens schrieb:

You could just seperate the data in the field's value with a delimeter like | or something you wouldn't see in the data, then explode() based on that? What kind of field are you using? Your explanation is very vague. On Monday 14 November 2005 12:40 pm, Chris Payne wrote:

Hi there everyon, I have a set of form fields dynamically generated but each item must contain 2 pieces of data - the input from the field AND the id that the input represents from the DB. I had this info a while back but had a major HD crash and lost the info I had, how can I do this easily in PHP? Hopefully an easier to understand scenario: I have a form with - example - 5 items listed, each item from the DB and you select ONE item only out of the list, when you submit the form it sends the input from the field you select BUT I also need it to send an addition bit of info in the form of $id so that on the processing page, I can extract both the ID and the data entered from a single field. Obviously I can't use a hidden field for this so the data has to be tacked-on to the input field somehow? Any help would save my life :-) Chris
