[PHP] W3C Validator and Post Arrays
Hi, We are getting errors when trying to vaildate our HTML due to the [ character when using Post Arrays: Line 173, Column 65: character [ is not allowed in the value of attribute id …e=filters[calling_url] id=filters[calling_url] value=categories-bulk-ear Does anyone know of a way around this?

Thanks Don't use [] in an ID - it doesn't belong there. If you are not using the ID for a hook, just drop it - the ID doesn't need to be there. The name attribute is where you want the [] to post an array, ID does not get sent in a post. -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

The ID of any element should be unique in a HTML document - if you need an ID for each of the inputs then you'll have to generate a unique one for each. To the rest of the list: I'm not too happy about having stuff inside the [] either - is that some syntax I've missed or is it just wrong? -- Peter Ford phone: 01580 89 Developer fax: 01580 893399 Justcroft International Ltd., Staplehurst, Kent -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

Put [] in the name attribute, but in ID must be unique.

As id's all need to be unique, just output an incremental number next to the text in the id property, sans [ characters.
