Re: Array in a input transfered via post

Did you / can you try using: < ...checkbox... name='thingarray[]' value='whatever value one'> < ...checkbox... name='thingarray[]' value='whatever value two'> < ...checkbox... name='thingarray[]' value='whatever value three'> The name='thingarray[]' syntax WILL allow you to access the values by _number_ <?echo $thingarray[2]?> What you previously seemed to want, my inference (( name='somearray[thing]' )) was a multidimensional array. If memory serves -- using something like name='somearray[thing][]' is possible in PHP4 though -- but better check doc's or message archives. HTH Tom Henry At 09:55 PM 7/21/00 +0200, Kim Noer wrote:

Ah no. See later down I asign values to say somearray[thing]- alas I'm trying to keep the amount of arrays down to the minimum. But it really puzzles me why I can't use numbers as keys.. -- "Jeg er ikke helt sikker på hvad du mener med den temperatur.
