-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hi everybody, I just stumbled across a little, yet quite annoying problem with javascript and php. In php you have the ability to use arrays as input field names (like <input type=text ... name="foo[bar]">) Somebody probably already noticed that you cannot access that input field with javascript. I haven't tried with IE, but Netscape under Linux returns an error if I try to do document.forms[0].foo[bar].value = 'something', which makes sense. Javascript regards the foo[bar] as an array and not as a name for the field. Would it be possible to teach PHP to recognize something like "<input ... name='foo__bar__'>" or "<input ... name='foo__1__'>" as an array? That would make life a lot easier, at least for me :) - -- Regards, Jonas Jochum P.S.: Those from php3@lists.php.net, please cc: me, since I'm not subscribed to that list. commandline net services cmd:~ # Systemadministration, Netzwerkverwaltung cmd:~ # Einrichtung von FreeBSD/Linux-Servern cmd:~ # Datenbank/Internetprogrammierung cmd:~ # Webdesign tel: 07223-911794 fax: 07223-911795 web: http://www.commandline.de mail: jj@commandline.de -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: 2.6.3i Charset: noconv Comment: Made with pgp4pine iQB1AwUBOHPUZ+VY1/wBqHQBAQGRXQMAhvk8QJGmysBmKofI0neKXQ32WPw9Pgtm DyckvgnvAYegXNCG1yToJ9y61ZJ5jcjjDqMSMWwoINUt1ZDSkHLDGFODJdWoD4lr 94NsIy24HlPGmrxloPNVxcSIF1dcP2pu =sOlN -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
