[PHP] my checkbox array striped ?

[adwinwijaya]

Hi all,

I have a script like this:

in html

<form name="form" action="process.php" method="post">
      <input name="type[]" type="checkbox" id="type[]" value="1" checked>
      <input name="type[]" type="checkbox" id="type[]" value="2" >
      <input name="type[]" type="checkbox" id="type[]" value="3" >
      <input name="type[]" type="checkbox" id="type[]" value="4" >
      <input name="type[]" type="checkbox" id="type[]" value="5" >
      <input type="text" name="xyz">
      <input type="submit" name="Submit" value="GO">
</form>

and in process.php I have:

<?php

function stripTags($value){
  if(isset($value))
      return strip_tags($value);
}

if(isset($_POST)){
    foreach($_POST as $key=>$value){
         $_POST[$key] = trim($value);
         $_POST[$key] = stripTags($value) ;
    }
}
        
print "<pre>" ;
print_r($_POST);
print "</pre>" ;

?>

and the output will be :

Array
(
    [type] => Array
    [xyz] =>
    [Submit] => GO
)

as you can see the type should be an array ... but it just displaying
Array ....
if I remove strip_tags from my script it will work perfectly (it will
display the checkbox array) ...

can someone explain to me why this happen ? I just want to strip tags
every input the user entered ...

thanks
