Getting dynamic form values.Helpful Member!

Hello coders,

I'm trying to get form values from dynamic form (screenshot: http://oi49.tinypic.com/25ox9c3.jpg)

When the user clicks submit, I want to get the textfield value and the value of the checkbox right next to each other like:

Stage1 - 1 (checked)
Stage2 - 0 (unchecked)

So far, I have the code to get the textfields values but not the checkbox values next to each other:

CODE

while (list ($key,$status) = @each ($_POST['stage'])){ //echo "$val,"; while (list ($key,$status1) = @each ($_POST['stage_status'])){ echo "$status<br>"; echo "$status1<br>"; } }

I know that's some bad coding practice but I was wondering how can I achieve what I've stated with neat coding. I know there's a way and any help is appreciated.


Thanks in advance.

only checked checkboxes will be submitted. so make sure that you explicitly number your checkboxes and fields as so

CODE

<form> <input type="text" name="text[0]" /><input type="checkbox" name="completed[0]" value="1"/> ... </form>

then in your receiving script

CODE

foreach ($_POST['text'] as $key=>$val): printf("%s - %s <br/>", htmlspecialchars(trim($val)), isset($_POST['completed'][$key]) ? "1 (checked)" : "0 (unchecked)"); endforeach;
