If you have them have the same name, it passes a list. You can do a listlen on the variable to get the number of values passed and then loop it through to get values into the tables. If you know what the values are, you can also do some if then processing to sort them out into the proper tables...

That product has options you can add to. Like Coffee, you can have the option of whole milk/skim/cream, sugar/equal/brown, caffine/decafe and so on. I want to pass these options along with the productID and qty. The possible values that are passed are: FORM.ProductID, FORM.Qty FORM.Option1 (option#count#) FORM.Option2 FORM.Option3 And so on... The Options are created dynamic so I don't know how many option groups (ie milk, sweeatner) I will have for each option (whole, skim, equal, splenda). This is why I have the input name= option#counter#. Since I'm working with radio input each group of options must have a unique name so I can select either whole milk, skim.... whole milk skim milk all have input nmes option1 white sugar, equal all have input names option2 The sku and qty are stored in a cartTable with a unique key for each line. Options will be insert in a seperate table which will only store the optionID and the cartID. Anyway, I don't know how to pass the many options along with the productID and qty.
