Hello everyone, I have the following html code that is generated via a script: <table> <form action="/new/mp3/stuff/testsearch.php" method="post" target=""> <tr><td><b>Artist</b></td><td><b>Title</b></td><td><b>File Size</b></td><td>Check</td></tr> <tr> <td width=295 valign=top> <p><b> Dj Ummet</b></p> </td> <td width=195 valign=top> <p><b>Pump This Party (extended Mix)</b> </td> <td width = "195" valign = "top"> <b>About 4.5 megabytes</b></p> </td> <td valign=top><input type=checkbox name=file[] value=%28Dj+Ummet%29+-+Pump+This+Party+%28Extended+Mix%29.mp3> <input type=hidden name=filenumber[] value=3437> </td> </tr> </tr> <tr> <td width=295 valign=top> <p><b> Metalica</b></p> </td> <td width=195 valign=top> <p><b>Enter Sandman</b> </td> <td width = "195" valign = "top"> <b>About 4.43 megabytes</b></p> </td> <td valign=top><input type=checkbox name=file[] value=%28Metalica%29+-+Enter+Sandman.mp3> <input type=hidden name=filenumber[] value=986> </td> </tr> </tr> <tr> <td width=295 valign=top> <p><b> Metalica</b></p> </td> <td width=195 valign=top> <p><b>The Memory Remains</b> </td> <td width = "195" valign = "top"> <b>About 4.24 megabytes</b></p> </td> <td valign=top><input type=checkbox name=file[] value=%28Metalica%29+-+The+Memory+Remains.mp3> <input type=hidden name=filenumber[] value=2331> </td> </tr> </tr> <tr> <td width=295 valign=top> <p><b> Metallica</b></p> </td> <td width=195 valign=top> <p><b>Battery</b> </td> <td width = "195" valign = "top"> <b>About 4.77 megabytes</b></p> </td> <td valign=top><input type=checkbox name=file[] value=%28Metallica%29+-+Battery.mp3> <input type=hidden name=filenumber[] value=2136> </td> </tr> </tr> </table> <input type="submit" name="submit" value="submit"> </form> the problem is this: Array ( [filenumber] => Array ( [0] => 3437 [1] => 986 [2] => 2331 [3] => 2136 ) [file] => Array ( [0] => %28Metalica%29+-+Enter+Sandman.mp3 [1] => %28Metallica%29+-+Battery.mp3 ) when I submit the form, I get the whole array of filenumber but only the selected files. Is there a way that I could limit it so that I get only the selected filenumbers and files, or should I re-think the way the script works? Thank you, Mike
