Checkbox Arrays! HELP!

[Chud37]

Hello,

 

I have to write a booking form and in my form I have a jQuery function that allows to add as many extra people as you like.  For each person, they have to select which days they want to be there for, IE, friday, saturday, sunday or monday.

 

The checkboxes are as such:

<input type="checkbox" id="a_friday" name="adultFri[]" class="hideMe">
<input type="checkbox" id="a_friday" name="adultSat[]" class="hideMe">
<input type="checkbox" id="a_friday" name="adultSun[]" class="hideMe">
<input type="checkbox" id="a_friday" name="adultMon[]" class="hideMe">

 

Which is fine.  However, because some of the checkboxes will not be selected, the arrays dont line up when I recieve them.  For example, if adult #1 checks friday and saturday, and adult #2 checks sunday and monday, I end up with this:

 

adultFri[0] = on

adultSat[0] = on

adultSun[0] = on

adultMon[0] = on

 

The adultSun and adultMon should both be at point 1.  This is because If the checkbox isnt checked, it doesnt get passed through.  Does anyone have a solution to this?

 

Please help! Thanks.

Then name the input boxes adultFri[1] and adultFri[2] for adults 1 and 2.  Then you'll have to:

foreach ( $_POST['adultFri'] as $adultId => $value )

 

You could also name them:

adult[Fri][1]

 

...and do a nested loop.
