 Hello all

 Currently I have a web fom that has 3 field in it that I want writing to a
 multidimensional array.

 TR
   TDINPUT TYPE=text NAME=address[] VALUE=/TD
   TD WIDTH=50 ALIGN=centerINPUT TYPE=text NAME=address[]['state']
 VALUE= SIZE=5 MAXLENGTH=5/TD
   TD COLSPAN=2INPUT TYPE=text NAME=address[][]['zip']
 VALUE=/TD /TR

I would name them as:

  NAME=address[][address]
  NAME=address[][state]
  NAME=address[][zip]

(I'm assuming you have multiple addresses on a single form)

Then loop through them by:

  foreach ($address as $key = $value) {
echo Address: {$value['address']} State: {$value['state']} Zip: 
{$value['zip']};
  }
  
For a single address use:

  NAME=address[address]
  NAME=address[state]
  NAME=address[zip]

And no need to loop, just use the values directly.

An important thing to note in general, if you do:



input name=address[][address] value=test1

input name=address[][city] value=test2

input name=address[][state] value=test3



On the page your submitting to, you'll end up with:



$address[0][address]

$address[1][city]

$address[2][state]



Where as you were expecting to get:



$address[0][address]

$address[0][city]

$address[0][state]



This happens because when you use the [] operator

to say to PHP next array position, every time it hits

that it increments the row, rather then understanding

your trying to say set this value on this array row, it

hears woah, I just saw a [] so I'm going to up the row.
