Re: php & javascript

Leave the <input> name as email. If you really want to call it email[], you should be able to reference this in JavaScript as the object document.myform["email[]"] If you leave it as email, you can then convert the email variable into an array using explode() or split() as so: <?php // on the recieving page, of course $emailArray = explode (",", $email); // Alternatively, a bit of RE exploding... $emailArray = split (",", $email); ?> Matt > Hey all! > > I'm including some javascript that enables a button in a form > <input type="button" name="CheckAll" value="Check All" > onClick="checkAll(document.myform.email)"> to check all > the check boxes at once.
