Passing an array of checkboxes via POST - How?

[user-7256]

Hi,

Let's say I have an "array" of checkboxes on a form:

<input type="check" name="dn[1]">
<input type="check" name="dn[2]">
<input type="check" name="dn[3]">
<input type="check" name="dn[4]">
<input type="check" name="dn[5]">
<input type="check" name="dn[6]">

Then I submit it. How can I make variable $dn an array? Is there a better way to do this? I need to be able to find out which checkboxes are checked.

Advice appreciated,
-Matt

What I do is this:

<input type="check" name="dn[]">
<input type="check" name="dn[]">
<input type="check" name="dn[]">
<input type="check" name="dn[]">
<input type="check" name="dn[]">
<input type="check" name="dn[]">

Then (at least in PHP) - you will get an array named "$dn" with the posted values.

Really? Then will it fill in the number for the array element automatically?

EDIT: Am checking it out now...

Works! Thanks!
