Selecting $_POST[0]?

[Perad]

I want to select the first item of the post array. How do i do it?

[MadTechie]

maybe

echo current($_POST);

 

not sure what you mean by select it !

[Perad]

I mean that I want to gather only one $_POST item and that is the first post item so I can use it later on in my script.

i'm sorry i am still not sure what your trying to do.

 

basic example!

<form method="post">
<input name="test1" type="text"><br>
<input name="test2" type="text"><br>
<input name="test3" type="text"><br>
<input name="test4" type="text"><br>
</form>

<?php
$t1 = $_POST['test1'];
$t2 = $_POST['test2'];
$t3 = $_POST['test3'];
echo "$t1, $t3, $t3, etc";
?>

for ($i=0;$i<=count($item)-1;$i++)
	{
	<input type=\"submit\" class=\"select\" name=\"$item[$i]\" value=\"\">			
	}

 

Multiple forms... each submit button has a different name. Name is based on the item code and thus I do not know it. Only one submit button can be pressed. Because I cannot put in $_POST['name'] I need to be able to sign the first value in the $_POST array to a variable. I tried $_POST[0] but it didn't work. furthermore current($_POST) also didn't work.

try

<form method="POST">
<input type="submit" name="name1" value="Click me" />
<input type="submit" name="name2" value="Click me" />
<input type="submit" name="name3" value="Click me" />
<input type="submit" name="name4" value="Click me" />
</form>
<?php
$post_fliped=array_flip($_POST);
echo $post_fliped['Click me'];
?>
