Any ideas?? Please > help. Hi Isman, Well, I don't think you can have "fields:$group_id:topic_id[$i]" as the name of your textfield. If you do that, your script that gets the result of this form will have a variable called $fields:17:topic_id[1], which is ilegal. Try nameing it diferently, like : for ($i = 0; $i < $loop_count; $i++) { echo "<input type='text' name='fields_" . $group_id . "_topic_id[]' value='$grade'>\n"; } I just noticed that you didn't have the echo function or print or whatever inside that loop. Maybe that's the error ? It is still broken because of your input field name anyway. You can then on the next script call the values of the textfields like this: for ($i = 0; $i < $loop_count; $i++) { echo $fields_groupidnumber_topic_id[$i] . "<BR>\n"; } I hope that helps ya.
