Re: Re: REQUEST QUESTION

Hi All, I have worked in Java and Cgi and there I was able to do this very easily. Infact i have one solution to this using GET method in PHP but I want this using POST. Here is the PHP Solution using GET to get 2 values with same NAME. --------------- $ar=explode('&',$QUERY_STRING); foreach ($ar as $stritem) if(substr($stritem, 0, 5) == "order") { $ordervalue = substr($stritem, 6); echo "\n<input type=\"hidden\" name=\"order\" value=\"" . urldecode($ordervalue) . "\">\n"; } } -------------- Looking forward for further comments on this subject.
