array - PHP?

[CarlSunshine]

i want to insert values in to a array in one page using a while loop. i dnt know how many vlaues will be ienterd so i used the following code:

<? $name=array();
$i=0;
while ($val2=mysql_fetch_array($result2)) {
$name[$i]=$val2["s_id"];
$i=$i+1;
echo($name[$i]);
}

then i passed this array to anothr page like this:
$name=urlencode(serialize
($name));
?><input name="names" type="hidden"
id="names" value="<? $name ?>">

on the nex page i said:
$name=unserialize(urldecode
($_REQUEST["names"]));
if(!empty($name)){
echo($name[0]);
}
else {
echo("no value");
}

Problem: it dnt return any value sn the 2n page and on the 1st pae gives this error: -
Undefined offset: 1 on the line having - echo($name[$i]); on the first page.

Please HELP!

Well on the first page, you increase the value of $i before you echo out the name. Place $i=$i+1; after the last echo. Additionally you can replace ($i=$i+1;) with ($i++;)

For the second page, make sure the form where you have the input is not method=post, if it is, change $_REQUEST on the last page to $_POST.

Hope that helps. Message me if you still have issues.

Undefined offset - you should increment your counter $i last. echo(...) should come before $i=$i+1.

Passing large amounts of data between pages is not a good idea. To use your method, make sure you are using a form for your inputs.
