In our last episode,
<1194213534.765875.294610@d55g2000hsg.googlegroups.com>, the lovely and
talented Kevin Davis broadcast on comp.lang.php:

> Hello,

> I have an quick question.

It is really an HTML question. Look up the input element in
your copy of the spec.

> I have the following form:

><form action="<?php echo $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'];?>" method="post" >
><?php linecount = 5 ?>
><?php
> for (i=0; i< linecount;i++)
> {
><input type="text" name[] value=field1>
><input type="text" name[] value=field2>
><input type="text" name[] value=field3>
><input type="text" name[] value=field4>
><input type="text" name[] value=field5>
><input type="text" name[] value=field6>
> }
></form>

> Then I try to split up the data:
> foreach ($_POST['name'] as $namef)
> {
> echo $namef."<br/>;

> }

> Here is the problem. The multiple fields seem not to be splitting up
> because the output seems to coming out in a single blob.

> What I would like to do is split up the array based upon the field
> entry so I can insert the info into the database.

> Thank you.

> Kevin
