RE: [PHP] Easily Making Post Vars Session Vars

Ok, I see where that's going. I actually was a bit off in my first posting. The form field names are a multi-dimesional array. The goal it to make writing all of the info to the db a breeze. ie- name="cust[personal][phone]" and name="cust[history][interests]" etc etc lets also say $cust[history][interests] = "tv"; The reasoning behind it is the data does not need to be stored in a consistent or usable (just readable) manner. so... say history is a table, and has a column name details. I would cycle through the array two levels deep on the first associative "history", i suppose with nested while(list = each). The two values I want to return from that array would be the 2nd associative key name and the value, in this case "interests" and "tv". SO... back on track... how would i utilize that loop below to get my multi-dimesion form variables into a session. Once I get it into a session I think I can break it up no problem.
