Put Arrays from $_POST in HTML Table

[lazerweb]

Hi,

 

I do a form post from one page1.php to page2.php

 

This is my php code on page2.php :

 

<?php

if ($_POST) {

    echo '<pre>';

    echo htmlspecialchars(print_r($_POST, true));

    echo '</pre>';

}

?>

 

It gives me this result:

 

Array

(

    [1] => Array

        (

            [item1] => Nails sml

            [Price1] => 10

            [Qty1] => 42

            [LineTotal1] => €420.00

        )

 

    [2] => Array

        (

            [item2] => Nails lrg

            [Price2] => 12

            [Qty2] => 35

            [LineTotal2] => €420.00

        )

 

    [3] => Array

        (

            [item3] => Nails brown

            [Price3] => 5

            [Qty3] => 14

            [LineTotal3] => €70.00

        )

 

    [4] => Array

        (

            [item4] => Black Nails

            [Price4] => 10

            [Qty4] => 15

            [LineTotal4] => €150.00

        )

 

    [5] => Array

        (

            [item5] => Rusted Nails

            [Price5] => 10

            [Qty5] => 15

            [LineTotal5] => €150.00

        )

 

    [Total4] => €1210.00

    [Client_Details] => Array

        (

            [Company] => Lazerweb

            [Contact] => theo

            [Tel] => 0114567890

            => theo@tm4y.co.za

            [Delivery_Address] => 822 Witwatersrand Ave,Strubensvalley,Gauteng,1735

 

Ok, so here is my problem:

 

I could simply do the following :

 

<?php

echo $_POST['1']['Item1'];

?>

 

but the problem is that the input boxes from page1.php where this post comes from :

 

[1] => Array

        (

            [item1] => Nails sml

            [Price1] => 10

            [Qty1] => 42

            [LineTotal1] => €420.00

 

etc. etc.

 

are created from a csv file (I loop through every row), so I do not know how many rows there will be. It can be 1 or 100.

Therefore  arrays 1 to 5 can be arrays 1 to 100.

The only arrays that are constant and will not change is  [Total4] and [Client_Details]

 

I therefore cannot hard code these values, how would I go about doing this?

 

Thx

Theo

remove the appended number from the field names (so for example "Item1", "Item2" etc. becomes simply "Item") and then

$total4 = $_Post["Total4"];
$client_details = $_Post["Client_Details"];

unset($_Post["Client_Details"]);
unset($_Post["Total4"]);

foreach ($_Post as $inputgroup) {
  echo $inputgroup["Item"];
  echo $inputgroup["Price"];
  //...
}

Hi, thank you for your help, however I get the following message:

 

Warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in W:\www\checkout.php on line 76

 

This is the line: foreach ($_Post as $inputgroup) {

 

I suppose it should be $_POST and not $_Post ?

Precisely.
