plastik77 Posted January 30, 2008 Share Posted January 30, 2008 Hi, I'm struggling with a problem on a form where i'm allowing the user to update multiple records at the one time. My mind has gone completely blank as to how i retrieve the form data correctly - the form is as follows: echo "<table border = 1 cellspacing = 1><tr><th>Date (dd/mm/yy)</th><th>Team</th><th>Opposition</th><th>Venue</th><th>Kick off</th><th>Arrangements</th></tr>"; for ($i=0; $i<$numrows; $i++) { //manipulate the date returned from mysql $row = $connector->fetchArray($result); $id = $row['id']; echo "<tr>"; echo "<td><input type='text' name='date[$id]' class='date' value='".$row['date']."'</td> <td><input type='text' name='team[$id]' class='team' value='".$row['team']."'</td> <td><input type='text' name='opposition[$id]' class='opposition' value='".$row['opposition']."'</td> <td><input type='text' name='venue[$id]' class='venue' value='".$row['venue']."'</td> <td><input type='text' name='kick_off[$id]' class='kick_off' value='".$row['kick_off']."'</td> <td><input type='text' name='arrangements[$id]' class='arrangements' value='".$row['arrangements']."'</td> </td><td><a href='delete_fixture.php?delete_id=".$row['id']."'>Delete</a></td>"; echo "</tr>"; } echo "</table>"; echo "<input type='submit' class='submit' name='update_this_weeks' value='Update'/>"; I want to be able to loop through these fields and update the records in the database, but i'm not sure of the syntax i should be using. Can anyone help at all? I know I should be using foreach in something like the following: if (isset($_POST['update_this_weeks'])) { //loop through each set of records foreach($_POST as $k => $value) { echo $k; //just testing here, but this doesn't work for me } } Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/88575-2-dimensional-post-array-help-needed/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
