From: tim@xi.co.nz Operating system: N/A PHP version: 4.0.5 PHP Bug Type: Documentation problem Bug description: FAQ section 8.1 should mention &lt;input name="array[key]"&gt; syntax Section 8.1 of the FAQ linked from php.net talks about using HTML forms to create arrays in PHP. It describes the <input name="array[]"> syntax, but specifically mentions that you can't use array keys - which is wrong, I'm not sure which version this was added in, but you can happily do <input name="array[key1]" ... > <input name="array[key2]" ... > and use $array in your target script. I find this terribly useful, so I thought it should be in the FAQ. -- Edit Bug report at: http://bugs.php.net/?id=10842&edit=1
