[mapserver-users] passing arrays betn. php and javascript

[Puneet Kishor]

you html code looks like so...

<input name="arLayers[]" type="checkbox" value="pistachio" checked>
<input name="arLayers[]" type="checkbox" value="hazelnuts">
<input name="arLayers[]" type="checkbox" value="honey" checked>
<input name="arLayers[]" type="checkbox" value="phyllo">


(sorry, I just ate baklava at Husnu's)


your php code automatically gets $arLayers with the checked layers as its
elements that you can loop through.

have fun.
