[PHP] count number of form fields?

2001-07-13 Thread Jaxon 

Hi,

Can someone give me an example of how to count the number of form fields
entered?
E.g. let's say I have three dropdown lists, the first is mandatory, and the
second two are optional.
I want to be able to tell my target php script how many of the dropdowns are
populated.

thanks in advance!
jaxon

A multiple dropdown lists will produce an array is you put [] when naming
the list. You than need to count how many elements you have in the array.

py

p.s. it could be done in javascript as well, but it's so easy in php :)
