[SOLVED] Array Variable in $_POST

[aashcool198]

This code produces a set of radio buttons in each loop..

So each set of radio buttons is named with a value stored in an array.

i.e. $me and each time $me takes value $array[$i].

 

 

 

<form action="<?php echo "insert_skill.php?something=$var"; ?>" method="post">	 
	    



    <?php  
for ($i = 0; $i < $count; $i++){ 
$me = $array_id[$i];
echo $me;
?>
  
  

      <tr>

      <td style = "padding-bottom:20px" ><font face="Arial" size="4"><?php echo $array[$i];?></font></td>

      <td style = "padding-bottom:20px" valign = "middle" align = "center">
  <input type="radio" name = "<?php echo $me; ?>" value="EL"/></td>
  <td style = "padding-bottom:20px" valign = "middle" align = "center">
  <input type="radio" name = "<?php echo $me; ?>" value="IMD"/></td>
  <td style = "padding-bottom:20px" valign = "middle" align = "center">
  <input type="radio" name = "<?php echo $me; ?>" value="EXP"/></td>
  <td style = "padding-bottom:20px" valign = "middle" align = "center">
  <input type="radio" name = "<?php echo $me; ?>" value="NONE"/></td>
  
  </tr>
     
  <?php }?>

  <tr><td colspan=5 style = "padding-bottom:20px" align = "right"><b><font  color="#587050" face="Arial" size="5"><input type="submit" value="save"></font></td></tr>

     </form>

 

 

while submitting the form i am going to another page where i am retrieving the values by this code:

 

$ash = $area[2];


$ashish = $_REQUEST[$ash];

echo $ashish;

 

$area[]  in the second page is same as  $array_id[] in first page. But $ashish is empty that means value is not retrieved i have checked through several echo's everything else is working but as i am using array variables in both the pages the problem is happening.

 

Please help! if you need some more information please let me know.

what does your $me; echo on the first page?

 

put in the lines

 

print_r($_POST);

exit();

 

in the second page and you will see all the $_POST items in an array and you'll be able to debug from there.

 

also on a side note, you should try and use $_POST and $_GET instead of $_REQUEST... in this case you'll be using $_POST.
