PHP question

Hello!
I have a question using PHP. I am trying to work with a . The user selects some items, and then clicks a "Step #2" button. The next page has a foreach statement that dynamically creates some text boxes. From there the user will click yet another button to continue to the final question. Basically how do I retrieve the values of the text boxes on the previous page? Since there will be more than one text box, how should I do it? I think an array might be the best bet, but again it might not.
Ideas?

Whoops, looks like the forum took out a tag that I had in there. The second sentence should read like this (change the brackets to the less-than and greater-than statements:
I am trying to work with a [select multiple]. |

You are right, an array is the way to do this.
For the name of each text box, give it something like:
input type="text" name="form[name1]" value="Blah blah"
input type="text" name="form[name2]" value="Blah blah"
input type="text" name="form[name3]" value="Blah blah"
Then, the results of these will be accessible via an array: $form (or, $_POST[form]). The next page, do a print_r($_POST) and you'll see your data.
Hope that helps!
