Where is $x defined?

You should use

$_POST['countries']; 

 

countries being a (name or id) of aninput field like

 <input type='hidden' name='countries' id='countries' value='$your_variable'/>

American Samoa\', \'Andorra\', \'Angola\', \'Anguilla\', \'Armenia\', \'Canada:

do you have any "\" in your code?

[jkkenzie]

No i didn't have any \ in my code though:

That worked thanks, if i have a variable = to xxxx', 'yyy', 'zzz', ' like that onwards is there a function that can break and make it to echo as below?

xxxx

yyy

zzz

 

thanks again
