note 55624 added to faq.html

Here's a new one, which might cause problems for people: To make my multiple select box contents accessible to both PHP and JavaScript (using getElementById()), I was using both name and id attributes - and naming them the same, for consistency: <select multiple="multiple" id="bob[]" name="bob[]"> However, I've discovered that - for reasons unknown - using the brackets in the id causes only a single value (rather than multiple values) to get returned to the $_POST['bob'] array. What you want is: <select multiple="multiple" id="bob" name="bob[]"> Hope this saves some time/frustration. ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/faq.html.php Edit -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+55624 Delete: added to the manual -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+55624&report=yes&reason=added+to+the+manual Delete: bad code -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+55624&report=yes&reason=bad+code Delete: spam -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+55624&report=yes&reason=spam Delete: useless -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+55624&report=yes&reason=useless Delete: non-english -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+55624&report=yes&reason=non-english Delete: other reasons -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+55624&report=yes Reject -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+55624&report=yes Search -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
