form problems

im trying to make something like phpmyadmin.

how to create database in phpmyadmin

my problem lies on the 3rd step. when the button "save" is clicked, all data will be sent to "another php page", and that page will be responsible for placing all data into the database.

when i'm on the "another php page" i can access all the data by using POST right?
but then the number of fields depend on the input of the user, so each "text area" "text box" "drop down" should have different name so i can access them, and place them on the database.


when the user inputs 3 in the number of fields, i use a for loop to create 3 rows with 8 columns.

so how can i validate all the data and send them to the database?

i know my explanation is not good im sorry, any help would really be appreciated. :smile2:

Yes, you need to give each input field a different name, so for example one of your text boxes for someone to enter their last name might look like this:

Then when you retrieve the data from the form, you validate it like so:

thank you for your help, but i still don't know how to change the name of each textbox after the loop....

So if your for loop look like this:

where $number is the number entered by the user, you can do this for your text boxes:

This way, on each iteration, each field will have the suffix 0, 1, 2 etc. $i is evaluated because it is inside the double quotes in php. Does this help?
