capture array problem

[Alicia]

Hi guys,

 

I am having problem capturing the values posted from this simple form. Can guru please advise on this :

 

<form id="form1" name="form1" method="post" action="array2.php">
  <label>
  <input type="text" name="textfield" id="textfield" />
  </label>
  <p>
    <label>
    <input type="text" name="textfield2" id="textfield2" />
    </label>
</p>
  <p>
    <label>
    <input type="text" name="textfield3" id="textfield3" />
    </label>
</p>
  <p>
    <label>
    <input type="submit" name="button" id="button" value="Submit" />
    </label>
  </p>
</form>

 

my php file to test the output but none of it works,. =(

 

<?
$check2 = 4;
for($i=1;$i<$check2;$i++) { 
echo $_POST['textfield$i'];
//${$textfield$i]} = $_POST['textfield$i'];
echo ${$textfield[$i]};
echo "{$_post['textfield']['$i']}<br />";
//echo $_POST['textfield2'];
echo ${$_POST['textfield$i']};
echo $i;
echo $_post['textfield']['$i'];

print_r($_post);
}
?>

 

Thanks

First, use long tags <?php and not short tags <?

 

Surrounding variables inside single quotes don't get translated into values.

echo $_POST['textfield'.$i];

first name is must be "textfield1" not "textfield"

Thanks guys... now another question need your help..

 

how can I put the textfield inside the while loop so it will show something like textfield1, textfield2 and etc without using for loop ?

 

I tried this one but the number the number assigned to these elements are all not in correct order.. i think there is some prob with my code.. please advise :

<form id="form1" name="form1" method="post" action="class3.php">
                                <table width="100%" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="5">
                                  <? 
							  $i = 1;
								$question = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM classquestion WHERE status ='Active'");
								while($question2 = mysql_fetch_array($question))
								{
								?>
                                  <tr>
                                    <td>
                                    <? echo $question2['question']; ?>                                    <input name="question<? echo $i++?>" type="hidden" id="question<? echo $i++?>" value="<? echo $question2['question']; ?>" /></td>
                                  </tr>
                                  <tr>
                                    <td><label>
                                      <textarea name="answer<? echo $i++;?>" id="question" cols="80" rows="5"></textarea>
                                      </label></td>
                                  </tr> <?
                                  }
							  ?>
                                  <tr>
                                    <td><label>
                                      <input type="submit" name="button" id="button" value="Submit" />
                                    </label></td>
                                  </tr>
                                </table>
							</form>

 

I want it arrange the number accordingly like question1 answer1 then question2 and answer2 and etc.. but now, what I got is question1 then answer4, question3 and answer2 .. all are not in proper order and there is no way i can echo the output in the correct order.

 

please advise.
