Hi there, I am facing a problem in getting all values from a form. There are loads of input check boxes in there which are named: x_1, x_2 etc. Now I want to get that post data into an array. Somehow like this: for ...{ $interests[] = $_POST[x_1]; } The problem is that the script does not know how many x there are and it does not know the number. So how to get them all? Has anybody an idea, I am lost on that one. Thanx for any hints, Merlin PS: I know that there is another way in passing the checkbox values, but due to some JS reasons I do have to go that way.
