[PHP] Passing through Array's to another script
I want to pass through an array with content to another script. The array is correctly filled with data. To do this I use the following code: FORM METHOD='post' ACTION='script.php?xtabel = ? print($xtabel); ?' The content of the array is not recognised in the script.php. What is the best way to do this? -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To contact the list administrators, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

why does your ACTION have a GET method URL??? the ?xtabel should be filled in
by the form not by you. Second you can't access arrays like print($xtabel)
that will only print the constant Array not the values in there, you're gonna
need a loop for that. I think the best solution for you would be to create
sessions and register the array within the session. And like I said, making a
POST form with a GET URL attached to it makes no sense to me at all. What
you could try, but I'm guessing here is the following.
print(FORM METHOD=POST ACTION=\script.php\\n);
$val = current($xtabel);
print(INPUT TYPE=HIDDEN NAME=xtabel[] VALUE=\$val\\n);
/* You need the [] at xtabel cuz else the older value will be overwritten,
this will make it clear to PHP that it's an array/hash*/
while ($val = next($xtabel) {
print(INPUT TYPE=HIDDEN NAME=xtabel[] VALUE=\$val\\n);
}
print(INPUT TYPE=SUBMIT NAME=SUBMIT\n);
print(/FORM);
I HAVE NOT!!! tested this but I think it might work. Since I didn't check it
might have some typos, you'll have to try I'm low on time and like I said I'm
new to this also, so no guarentees :-).
Kind regards

RE: Re: [PHP] Passing through Array's to another script
Maybe you should take a look at serialize and unserialize?
http://nl.php.net/manual/nl/function.serialize.php
http://nl.php.net/manual/nl/function.unserialize.php
With serialize you translate a variable to a string. With unserialize you
translate it back to the original variable

Re: Re: [PHP] Passing through Array's to another script
Well, there's a small difference between form's GET/POST and passing variables using the ? on urls. I don't know the techinal details of it, but it's possible. I guess, on this particular case, the form method is POST. When the next page is loaded (the action target), you put some GET parameters too. It's not about the form, but the page that is being loaded. Maybe it can receive GET and POST at the same time?... I guess that's the case. -- Julio Nobrega.

Re: [PHP] Passing through Array's to another script
If you need to POST a form, but include some variables, you can use hidden fields. form action=script.php method=post input type=hidden name=a value=foo input type=hidden name=b value=bar input name=c /form Assuming someone now enters baz into the input called c, your POST data is equivalent to doing a href=script.php?a=foob=barc=bazClick here!/a However, you can't do this: form action=script.php?a=foob=bar method=post input name=c /form Because a b won't get submitted.

Re: [PHP] Passing through Array's to another script
However, you can't do this: form action=script.php?a=foob=bar method=post input name=c /form Because a b won't get submitted. Well, like I said, I don't understand very well, but things after the ? are available on the action page, even if the method is POST. Here's a tested example (PHP 4.1.0, Win2k AS, Apache 1.13.20) aaa.php: form method=post action=bbb.php?var=value input type=submit /form bbb.php ?php echo $HTTP_GET_VARS['var'].'br'; echo $_GET['var'].'br'; echo $REQUEST_METHOD; ? Shows: value value POST So, the method is still POST, but things after ? are also available. What should not work is this: aaa.php: form method=post action=bbb.php input name=var input type=submit /form bbb.php: echo $_GET['var']; But for this one I didn't test... -- Julio Nobrega. -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To contact the list administrators, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
