Re: Re: error checking a null array

AAarg. Okay, thanks to all of you I've decided that any field name I need to see will be sent to $_SESSION['required_fields'] and basta. Then after the submit button is pressed, I am doing this: reset($_SESSION['required_fields']); foreach ($_SESSION['required_fields'] as $fieldname)

    {
       if (!isset($_POST[$fieldname]) || empty($_POST[$fieldname]))
        {
        $message[$fieldname]=1;
        include_once(QUESTIONS . 'q.inc');
        }
    }//error check

And this is *almost* working: it seems to crap out after the first loop through the $_SESSION['required_field'] array. The array says: Array ( [required_fields] => Array ( [0] => 1 [1] => 2 [2] => 3 [3] => 4 [4] => 1 [5] => 2 [6] => 3 [7] => 4 [8] => 1 [9] => 2 [10] => 3 [11] => 4 ) ) $_POST says: Array ( [action] => [process]process [1] => [2] => 68 [3] => [4] => ) So you see, there's an answer specified for the value of question [2]. But $messages says only: $message: array(1) { [1]=> int(1) } Why is it dying after the first loop through? Thanks in advance
