I have a project where I create hidden input values with jQuery. These represent groups and members so I have one array for the groups themselves and arrays with the members of each groups.
For example after a few creations the code in the form includes
<input type="hidden" name="groups['group_2']" value="0">
<input type="hidden" name="groups['group_1']" value="0">
<input type="hidden" class="mem_id_holder" name="group_1[]" value="FWNGVISkjW">
<input type="hidden" class="mem_id_holder" name="group_1[]" value="G0t9E3C0yG">
<input type="hidden" class="mem_id_holder" name="group_2[]" value="NT-JEDVCS9">
for an example of 2 groups with 2 members in group_1 and 1 member in group_2.
Now, after the submit my code to iterate through the values I use this code:
if ($groups_no && isset($_POST['groups']) && !empty($_POST['groups'])){
$groups = $_POST['groups'];
foreach ($groups as $key => $val){
if (isset($_POST[$key]) && !empty($_POST[$key])){
$group_members = $_POST[$key];
foreach ($group_members as $member_key => $member_val){
echo 'Actions to be done here!';
}
}
}
}
The problem I have is that I get the following warning and the program fails:
Notice: Undefined index: 'group_1' in C:\ ... .php on line 31
Warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() ...
Notice: Undefined index: 'group_2' in C:\ ... .php on line 31
Warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() ...
When I use $_POST['group_1'] everything works fine but since I do not know how many and which groups I will have to insert I need the variable. I have tried some different things suggested via some Google results but nothing worked.
Any ideas? Is $_POST even capable of having variables as indexes? Also if it isn't, is there any other workaround?
