[SOLVED] foreach form return ?

[sanchez77]

so I have an HTML form with a list element that returns an arrays.

 

Ok, so dumb question.

 

When the form is processed, it sends an email that contains the value from the form, but this element returns the printed value "Array" not the values selected.

 

So how does a foreach function work in this case. the form is form, the list value id has [ ] in it.

 

the php is this, and the printed value is "Array" not the selction.

 

 

$value = $_POST['selected'];

$body .= "Values: ".$value."\n";

foreach ($value as $v) {
  echo "$v<br />";}


  mail( "[email protected]", "Form", $body, $message, "From: <[email protected]>");

 

please help me understand, thanks

In this case $_POST['selected'] is an Array, so you're doing to want to loop through that.

$value = $_POST['selected'];
foreach($value as $val)
{
     $body .= "$val<br />\n";
}
