I think you are making things more complicated than they need to be.
Actually, I know you are. Its okay, though, you gotta go through it.
Instead of assigning the values from an array, just use them directly. In
your example/question, where is the array $arrayname? Where were you
planning on using the 'list($a, $b, $c) = $arrayname' construct?
In any case, the values you are posting get put into the following places
in your receiving PHP script:
$_POST
and
$_REQUEST
Unless you have a specific reason to do so (and there can be several) use
$_REQUEST. It is a superset of $_GET and $_POST.
So no need for the if($_SERVER['REQUEST_METHOD'] == "POST"){} block; just
use $_REQUEST.
Also, if you are just getting the name-value pairs and not doing anything
fancy, you can skip the whole foreach() loop and use print_r() instead:
$msg = print_r($_REQUEST, true);
That will produce nearly the same output as your foreach() loop.
But back to your original question, I don't know how to really answer it
because you don't really show where you are going to be using the
list()=$arrayname thing.
