Hi


I have a js array which when form submitted i wish to
convert into a form array (php) that can be porcessed to the database.


How do i do this

cheers

You can try this reading this article in my blog, about how to send a javascript array to PHP.

OK well im trying to use it with out much joy at all.

my form is called "revisions"
array I wish to write to is myArray
and js array is called form_links

<input type="submit" name="submit" value="Save Changes" onclick="convertJsArrayToPhpArray(form_links, 'myArray' , 'revisions')"/>


To check this i am simply echo myArray[0]

NO joy.

Any ideas?

<script type="text/javascript">
<!--
function jaArray() {
     
     output = '';
     for(i = 0; i < form_links.length; i++) {
       output = output + '<input type="hidden" name="myArray[]" value="' + form_links[i] + '" />';
     }
     
     document.getElementById("jsForm").innerHTML = output;
     return true;
     
}
-->
</script>
 
 
...
 
 
<!-- Your form goes here //-->
<input type="submit" name="submit" value="Save Changes" onclick="jaArray();"/>
<div id="jsForm"></div>

numbenator: try it like this:

<form action="foo" method="post" onsubmit="convertJsArrayToPhpArray(form_links, 'myArray' , 'revisions')" id="revisions">
<input type="submit" "Click me" />
</form>

and in your PHP

PHP Code:

print_r( $_POST['myArray'] );
