want to insert values from text fields into multidimensional array the code is as following:-
<body>
<form action="" method="post">
<h1>Task<h1>
<br/>
<h4>Date:<h4>
<input type="date" name="date" value=""/>
<br/>
<h4>Status:<h4>
<textarea name="status"></textarea>
<br/>
<br/>
<br/>
<input type="submit"name="submit" text="submit"/>
</form>
<?php
$datewise_status=array();
$int=0;
if (isset($_POST['submit']))
{
$datewise_status[$_POST['date']]="".$_POST['status']."";
}
print($int);
print_r($datewise_status);
?>
</body>
gives the following output:
Int value = 0
array = Array ( [2015-06-09] => sadfasdfas )
input date = -015-06-09
text field:- sadfasdfas
You can achieve this easy with jquery, if you change your input type from submit to button. but if you want to to it with php, all you have to do is to change your array variable into session array:
<?php
session_start();//at the beginning of the file
if(!isset($_SESSION['datewise_status'])) //check if array was already created
$_SESSION['datewise_status']=array();
$int=0;
if (isset($_POST['submit']))
{
$_SESSION['datewise_status'][]= array($_POST['date'],$_POST['status']);
}
print($int);
print_r($_SESSION['datewise_status']);
?>
Your code is not working now because you are creating a new array variable every-time you click submit
