I don't know about preferred style or not, but if you want PHP to recognize multiple values from a form or URL, then you must add the [] onto the name so PHP will put it into an array. Otherwise you end up with "box=1&box=2&box=3" and when PHP parses that, each overwrites the other, so you end up with $box == 3 at the end and the other values are lost. I'm sure it's discussed in the Form Handling section of the manual. ---John Holmes... -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

Thanks! Parse the value of $_SERVER['QUERY_STRING'] yourself and make the array. ---John Holmes... -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
