Hi, The HTML standard defines the set of characters that are valid in form element names. It does not include [ or ] and yet this seems to be the only way to get a set of form elements grouped into an array for server side processing. Why doesnt PHP do (Perl/ASP) automatically create an array when there is more than one form element with the same name in the post/get data?
