RE: [PHP] Problem of a beginner with Array

Name each of the checkboxes "grid[]" (<input type="checkbox" name="grid[]" value="your_value">Your Text), then in your processing script, $_POST['grid'] will be an array with the values of all the checked boxes (assuming at least one was checked - otherwise it won't be set). If you want a limit on the number of boxes you can check, try a little Javascript. Hope it helps, Will -----Original Message----- From: Henri Marc [mailto:mesmlamoi@yahoo.fr] Sent: Tuesday, July 20, 2004 1:10 PM To: php-general@lists.php.net Subject: [PHP] Problem of a beginner with Array Hello, I'm just starting with PHP and I have a problem. This is certainly very easy for you but for me, it's tough. I want to make a lottery site (just as an exercise), so I made a page with 6 grids of 50 numbers each (check boxes). Now, I want to know which numbers have been checked by the player. I have a : "input name="Grid1" type="checkbox" for the first grid. Grid2 for the grid #2... I was thinking to get the numbers chosen by the player with $_POST['Grid1[]'] Grid1 being a table but it doesn't work. I thought I wouldn't have to declare an array. I have 50 numbers for each grid, I don't want to have to type array followed by the 50 numbers. There is not a way to do something like array(1...50). What is the solution? Thank you very much (in advance) for your help. Dave --------------------------------- Créez gratuitement votre Yahoo! Mail avec 100 Mo de stockage ! Créez votre Yahoo! Mail Yahoo!
