Ch0cu3r Posted April 24, 2014 Share Posted April 24, 2014 What? Your code makes no sense. What is it you're trying to do? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaswinder Posted April 24, 2014 Author Share Posted April 24, 2014 it properly makes sense.. i just want to use the array $answer inside a function.. how can i use it ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ch0cu3r Posted April 24, 2014 Share Posted April 24, 2014 By passing it as an argument when it is called $val = 'some value'; $answer = array('val1', 'val2'); numcheck($val, $answer); Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cornelius Posted April 24, 2014 Share Posted April 24, 2014 (edited) You first need to add missing tags in page1.php <html> <body> <form action="page2.php" method="post"> Marks1 = <input type="text" name="marks1" /> Marks2 = <input type="text" name="marks2" /> <input type="submit"> </form> </body> </html> You're passing array to page2.php and extracting it to separate variables, and then again making a new array from those variables. Nevertheless you can use it no problem: extract($_POST); $val=10; $answer=array( $marks1, $marks2); numcheck($val, $answer); function numcheck($sent_val,$sent_answer){ echo $sent_val . "<br/>"; foreach ($sent_answer as $mark){ echo $mark . "<br/>"; } } Edited April 24, 2014 by Cornelius Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cornelius Posted April 24, 2014 Share Posted April 24, 2014 You also could have used $_POST array directly in the second file: $val=10; numcheck($val); function numcheck($sent_val){ echo $sent_val . "<br/>"; foreach ($_POST as $mark){ echo $mark . "<br/>"; } } Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
