It should be name="email[]", and you will get the data from the $_REQUEST['email'] variable or $_POST['email'] as array. If you want detailed information on which variables are submited to your PHP script, you can do var_dump($_REQUEST); or echo var_export($_REQUEST); And be careful of doing var_dump() or var_export() over the $GLOBALS variable (turn off register_globals). > > $new_email = mysql_escape_string ( $_POST['referral_$i'] ); > > why? > > PHP while lopp to check if any of the fields were populated: > > > > $i=1; > while ( $i <= 5 ) { > > $new_email = mysql_escape_string ( $_POST['referral_$i'] ); > > if ( strlen ( $new_email ) > 0 ) { > .... > } > > } > > > The form itself: > > > <form method="post" action=”website”> > > <p style="margin: 10px 50px 10px 50px;"><input type="text" > name="email" > maxlength="60" class="referral_1" style="width: > 400px;"></p> > > <p style="margin: 10px 50px 10px 50px;"><input type="text" > name="email" > maxlength="60" class="referral_2" style="width: > 400px;"></p> > > <p style="margin: 10px 50px 10px 50px;"><input type="text" > name="email" > maxlength="60" class="referral_3" style="width: > 400px;"></p> > > <p style="margin: 10px 50px 10px 50px;"><input type="text" > name="email" > maxlength="60" class="referral_4" style="width: > 400px;"></p> > > <p style="margin: 10px 50px 10px 50px;"><input type="text" > name="email" > maxlength="60" class="referral_5" style="width: > 400px;"></p> > > <p style="margin: 10px 50px 10px 50px;"><input type="submit" > name="submit" value="Add New Referrals"></p> > > </form> > > > What am I doing wrong? > > Ron > > The Verse of the Day > “Encouragement from God’s Word” > http://www.TheVerseOfTheDay.info Best regards, -- Daniel Molina Wegener <dmw [at] coder [dot] cl> System Programmer & Web Developer Phone: +56 (2) 979-0277 | Blog: http://coder.cl/
