No, by dynamic form fields I mean form fields that are created and named programatically because you don't know in advance how many there will be. An example of this might be a shopping cart where you build each detail line as items are added to the cart, then parse each line of the form when it is submitted.
Since you have multiple items when you submit each form field will contain a comma delimited list like this if you use the same name for the form field for each item: itemid: 31,53,68,81 price: 1.85,7.95, 112.79, 138.50 color: blue,,red Or like this if you use an incremental naming scheme. itemid_1: 31 price_1: 1.85 color_1: blue I just find it easier to map the form to an array or structure and loop over that to get the elements I need for each item.
