Note Submitter: jon dot rifkin at uconn dot edu ---- PHP's processing of POSTs can read multiple input tags with the same name and turn them into an array, but you need to add "[]" to the name. For example, don't do this, <input name="color" value="red"> <input name="color" value="blue"> <input name="color" value="green"> because only the last value will be kept, like this $_POST["color"] = "green" Instead, do this <input name="color[]" value="red"> <input name="color[]" value="blue"> <input name="color[]" value="green"> This will give you an array of all the values, $_POST["color"] = array("red","blue","green"); (Tested with PHP 5.3.3)
