Ok, I see where that's going.
I actually was a bit off in my first posting.
The form field names are a multi-dimesional array. The goal it to make
writing all of the info to the db a breeze.
ie- name="cust[personal][phone]"
and name="cust[history][interests]"
etc etc
lets also say
$cust[history][interests] = "tv";
The reasoning behind it is the data does not need to be stored in a
consistent or usable (just readable) manner. so... say history is a table,
and has a column name details.
I would cycle through the array two levels deep on the first associative
"history", i suppose with nested while(list = each).
The two values I want to return from that array would be the 2nd associative
key name and the value, in this case "interests" and "tv".
SO... back on track... how would i utilize that loop below to get my
multi-dimesion form variables into a session. Once I get it into a session I
think I can break it up no problem.
Thanks.
