Getting Values from a Textbox that is in a While Loop?

[ZeTutorials101]

Hey guys, how can I get the value from a textbox that is in a while loop?

What?

Are you saying you have multiple inputs? Make their names an array and you can then access the array in PHP

<input type="text" name="fields[]">

And then $_POST['fields'] will have a useful array.

<input type="text" name="field" value="<?php echo"$_POST['field;];?>">

a post, and get are already arrays.

$sql = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM hacker_log");
   echo '<form action="" method="POST">';
while ($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($sql)){

   $ip = $row['ip'];
   $time = $row['time'];
   $id = $row['id'];
   echo 'IP: $ip Time: $time <input type="hidden" name="id" value="'.$id.'"><input type="submit" name="remove" value="Remove From Log">';

} 
   echo '</form>';
if (isset($_POST['remove'])){
echo $_POST['id'];
}

That is my code, but when I try it.. it doesn't work.

One problem is that you have one form and many hidden input fields named "id". When the form is submitted, you may not get the desired input.

Did you even read the replies? My post explains how to do this.

It looks like the OP just wants the single ID for the item to remove. I would personally use anchor tags instead of the remove buttons and the HTML form.

I agree, but the OP didn't make any effort to use anything we said so far, so...
