Bug #13718 Updated: form elements with same name problem

ID: 13718 Updated by: sniper Reported By: jone1941@yahoo.com Old Status: Open Status: Bogus Bug Type: Feature/Change Request Operating System: All PHP Version: 4.0.6 New Comment: Just name them as 'name=varname[]' (add the []'s in the end) and you'll get an array. --Jani Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2001-10-17 16:47:11] jone1941@yahoo.com The problem exists in the way that php handles the reception of a posted form. If there is more than one element in a form with the same name and it is posted to a php page, php handles this by assuming the last element with that name is the correct value for that variable. In order to provide a proper coexistance with javascript it should treat all variables with that name as elements of an array. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=13718&edit=1
