[SOLVED] Changing Form - Problem

[paulman888888]

I have my form and the form changes everytime.

The form may have 12 textareas or something 24.

 

What I would like to know is how do i collect all data from all text area into 1 string?

heres my form

<?php 
//this is the important part
for ($i=1; $i<=$moves; $i++)//the $moves will change all the time
{
echo'<tr><td width="50%"><span id="sprytextfield1"><label>
      '.$i.') <input name="white_move_'.$i.'" type="text" id="white_move_'.$i.'" size="9"></label>
      <span class="textfieldRequiredMsg">A value is required.</span><span class="textfieldMinCharsMsg">Please Enter Whites Move.</span></span></td>';
echo'<td width="50%"><span id="sprytextfield2">
      <label><input name="black_move_'.$i.'" type="text" id="black_move_'.$i.'" size="9">
      </label>
      <span class="textfieldRequiredMsg">A value is required.</span><span class="textfieldMinCharsMsg">Please Enter Blacks Move</span></span></td></tr>';
}

On my collection page where all infomation is sent.

How would i retieve all the form information?

I would like to collect the results like this.

(number). (value of white_move_#) (value of black_move_#)

# will change all the time.

 

I hope i didnt sound to confuseing.

Thankyou

This is one way of doing it, however not very efficient.

<?php
$textareas = $_POST['textarea1'] . $_POST['textarea2'] . $_POST['textarea3'];

echo $textareas;

Good idea but like i said there wont be a sent number of textareas.

There may be 4 sometime and 66 other times.

So i think i need some kind of loop to find out how many textareas i have got and then use your code.

Hope you understand

 

Thankyou

You can make a loop similar to this one:

 

<?php
$i = 1;
while(true)
{
  if (!isset($_POST["white_move_".$i])) break;
  // do whatever you'd like with $_POST["white_move_".$i]

  $i++;
}
?>

Just to confirm.

Ill put that in my code and when theres no more white_move_$1 the loop will stop?

 

I like that.

Thankyou very much
