I have a foreach loop with a form inside for each result like so:
foreach($this->results() as $that) {
<form>
<input type="text" name="name[]">
<input type="text" name="this[]">
</form>
}
and so on. My question is how do I each forms data. I understand you can do something like the following:
$_POST['name'][0];
$_POST['name'][1];
etc, but is their a way to get this done without knowng how many forms their will be. I mean like foreach loop the $_POST data and get each form?
Many thanks
foreach ($_POST['name'] as $val) { /* do what you want, want you want with my value */ }
$_POST['name']
is just an array. Use count
or any array function you want on it then.
You can do it like this:
foreach ($_POST['name'] as $val => $value) {}
assuming these rows are being generated by a while loop, and the variable is named like this
$val = $row['val'];
And then in your form you'd have something like this:
echo '<input type="hidden" value="'.$val.'" name ="val[]" /><input type="text" name="name['.$val.'] />";
basically the name variable would be identified by the value itself being generated but also appended on a named variable, and then can be fed into your foreach.
foreach ($_POST['name'] as $key => $value) {
echo 'key: '.$key.' Value : '.$value;
}
--------------------------
output key: 0 Value : nameValue1
key: 1 Value : nameValue2
$_POST['name'] is an array, if you get multiple value with key, just get with foreach value
