Okay, here is the question, I have a form that will continue to grow in the number of elements that it contains. The values are passed into a function, and then written out to a file. Currently, I have 38 seperate values that are being passed into this function, making the arguments for the function very long. Now, I know I can pass an array into a function, however, I would like to know if there was a way to name the elements of the form as in an array, for example: <input name="array[1]" type="text"> <input name="array[2]" type="text"> <input name="array[3]" type="text"> <input name="array[4]" type="text"> and then, rather than having to pass all 38 seperate arguements into the function, I could simply pass the array like this: function_name($array); And then simply dissect the array inside the function like normal?
