Quick question

hey.

 

I was just wondering, some PHP servers like mine have Register Globals turned off. So you have to type something like

 

$name = $_POST['name'];

 

to get the data from the other page is there one line i can write so it gets all the data? if you know what i mean

I suppose you could try (note: not tested)

 

<?php
foreach($_POST as $key => $value) {

$$key = $value;

}
?>

alternatively, you could use the extract() function.  why is it necessary to make the variables local?

Ill just stick to grabbing the data with $var = $_POST['name'];

yes, however the idea of an array is to be able to easily manage that arge amount of data.  If youve got heaps of variables, then its harder to read your code later on.

 

 

What are you doing with your $_POST data?  sometimes its helpful to use variables, other times it seasier to use teh array.
