Actually if you really want to pass it through the URL you can do it this
way:
<a href="sample2.php?<? for ($I=0, $I<count($array); $I++) echo
"array[]={$array[$I]}&"; ?>">
There are other ways of doing it, but basically you want a URL that looks
like this:
<a href="sample2.php?array[]=var1&array[]=var2&array[]=var3">
This tells php that that variable through the url is to be parsed as an
array.
You can also, like Edward said, use hidden fields in a form, use sessions.
You can also use cookies with serialize to pass them, which since most
people accept them it is usually ok. There are ways of checking for cookies
also. Hmm.. What else probably lots of other ways, but if you donšt mind
the url mess then you might as well do the above example. I've used all of
the above examples it just depends on what you are using it for in my
opinion :) I hope it helps!
Cheers!
