I usually just
tend to use the $_REQUEST array instead of $_POST or $_GET. You get the
benefit of being able to work with both arrays (as well as $_SESSION and
$_COOKIE) without any drawbacks.
Thanks,

Ash:
Drawbacks are funny things.
Not knowing where my data originated ($_GET, $_POST, or $_COOKIE) and
having the possibility of what I was expecting overridden in a
$_REQUEST is what I would call a drawback.
Cheers,

To test a form I usually send the form contents to a php file that contains
the following;
foreach($_POST as $nm = $val) echo _POST[.$nm.] [.$val.]br;
foreach($_GET as $nm = $val) echo _GET[.$nm.] [.$val.]br;
Checkboxes and radio buttons only send their value if the control is
checked.
That's correct, here's the way I solve both types:
http://php1.net/b/form-radio
http://php1.net/b/form-radio1
http://php1.net/b/form-checkbox/
http://php1.net/b/form-checkbox1/

You can have multiple submit buttons (type=submit) on a form, but you
should assign them different name parameters to recognize which one is
clicked (any one of them will cause the form to be submitted, but the only
one that will establish a $_POST entry named submit is the submit control
that is named submit (name=submit).
I would suggest NOT naming any field submit. There will come a time when
you will want to do form.submit() in JavaScript and you will find it
broken in one of the browsers. I'm not sure which, but one of them
breaks if you have named a field submit. As a result I always use
continue instead :)
Cheers,
Rob.

warren's test script above doesn't work so well with tedd's scheme for
naming radios checkboxs. tedd uses name=option[] in the markup so in
warren's script, when $nm is 'option', $val will be an array so it won't
convert to a string in .$val..

Hey Stuart -
RTFM yourselfI did read it, and obviously misunderstood...
I'm really sorry to bother you. I thought that was what a listserv
like this was for - to ask questions...
I'll try not to ask questions I should know the answer to next time.
Whoa
