A note regarding the code posted by Øyvind Vestavik, NTNU Norway for dynamic html forms with
unknown number of entries..
After banging my head against a brick wall with this code, wondering why it wouldn't work on my
local server and would on my host.. for the code to work as written, register_globals must be on..
To make the code work as written, either extract($_POST), or specifically reference the required
variables by their propper names - ie $nr_entries = $_POST['nr_entries']
For the dynamic entries, (ie $_POST['name_1'] etc) reference them like so:
<?php
$temp = "name_$i";
$value = $_POST[$temp];
?>
...thereby removing the reliance on variable variables anyway.
regards,
David
