Re: Complex (or not so) array data form submission?

Thanks. I think what I got hung up on was that I was trying this: name="addresses[][id]" name="addresses[][address1]" name="addresses[][address2]" name="addresses[][city]" name="addresses[][state]" name="addresses[][zip]" Which wouldn't have given the end result I sought, I don't think. Clear case of not seeing the forest for the trees.
