Re: [PHP] HTTP_POST_VARS: Data there, but can't get to it

2001-11-10 Thread Christopher William Wesley 

Name the form element without the brackets ... just whatdo instead of
whatdo[].  When $whatdo[] makes it to your formhandler, it's an array.
(You _could_ access $whatdo[0] ... but that may or may not be more
confusing.)

 name=image[] which works perfectly.

 I can find nothing on this in the documentation or any of the other

 Please, what am I doing wrong in trying to access the HTTP_POST_VARS?

Well, for a set of raido buttons, they should all have the same name.
In your case, all 3 radio buttons should be named whatdo.
Don't put on any brackets ... that will cause whatdo to be an array when
it's being handled by the form handler.

Then you can check $HTTP_POST_VARS['whatdo'] for the value of the checked
radio button when the form was submitted.
