The only difference between using an array and a scalar in this case is the addition of the square brackets after the variable name in the <input> code, which tells PHP to interpret multiple values as multiple array members. In short, you should end up with something like this: while (list ($key, $val) = each ($fields)) { print " $key:<input type=\"text\" size=\"30\" MAXLENGTH=\"60\" name=\"f[]\" value=\"$val\"><br>\n"; } Hope this helps, Torben -- +----------------------------------------------------------------+ |Torben Wilson <torben@php.net> Netmill iTech| |http://www.coastnet.com/~torben http://www.netmill.fi| |Ph: 1 250 383-9735 torben@netmill.fi| +----------------------------------------------------------------+
