How to post multiple keys to php script?

[mikk809h]

Hello!

 

im wondering how to post multiple keys to a webpage.. but somehow it doesnt work really..

 

 

 
 if (isset($_POST['key'])) {
        $userKey = $_POST["key"];
  if ($userKey == $key) {
     if (isset($_POST['licensekey'])) {
       $lic = $_POST['licensekey'];
       echo $lic; -- when echo'ing, it returns 3 blank spaces.
 

 

How do i post multiple strings/keys to the webpage then?

 

 

 

Thanks in Advance

your post doesn't show what you mean by multiple strings/keys, so this is just a guess, but i suspect the answer involves arrays.

[Phear46]

if(isset($_POST['<NAME OF SUBMIT BUTTON>'])) {
$userKey = $_POST['key'];
$lic = $_POST['licensekey'];
}

to see what has been 'sent' to your script use:

print_r($_POST);

if nothing is returned, your sending nothing which is why you have blank space.

it returns 1 long string (the key), but after that, it returns "Array" 

 

 

EDIT: maybe im posting wrong? This is the part, of the posting mechanism:

 

"key=" .. key .. ", licensekey=" .. computer[pos].key);

 
<?php
$key = 'personalcode_not_shared_online';
 
 if(isset($_POST['key'])) {
$userKey = $_POST['key'];
$lic = $_POST['licensekey'];
print_r($_POST);
}
 
 
?>

until you define what you mean by "multiple strings/keys" and then share that definition or a diagram with us, we cannot help you.

But... Mac_Gyver.. if Phear understand what i mean. then you dont have to post the same post again. if you're not understanding what i mean, then dont try to help me!

as i said in previous post;

This isnt the right posting method, right?

 

 

"key=" .. key .. ", licensekey=" .. computer[pos].key);

mikk809h,

 

Phear showed you some troubleshooting logic in the hope that you would show us the output from it so that we could see how your submitted data is organized.

 

you still haven't shown how you are submitting multiple sets of data, so you haven't gotten anywhere with this problem. you either must use an array name for your form fields (preferred method as it allows any number of data items in the set) or give each one a unique name (not preferred as it takes more code to keep track of the unique names).

[mikk809h]

BUT! i just want to know, what the "array" means... did that then mean that i've posted something wrong, or!

 

and as i said.. do anyone know if this posting method is correct (does i need like an ? after the $key='$key')

 

 

"key=" .. key .. ", licensekey=" .. computer[pos].key);

I was going to GUESS what you mean and try to help you, but after reading this, my will is gone.
