Hey guys,

How do I grab one of the values in the array? I have been using

Code:
Thank You &lt;?php echo $_POST['first_name']; ?&gt;

Code:
Thank You &lt;?php echo $this->input->post('first_name'); ?&gt;

but it is just returning "1" instead of the name of the purchaser.

Thanks in advance!

@jschutt: You might try modifying the config.php as in this post: http://ellislab.com/forums/viewthread/53437/P15/

This is really puzzling me. I'm sure it's something simple...

Code:
&lt;? if($_POST): ?&gt;

<p>Here is its information:</p>

<p><code>

&lt;?php    

    foreach ($_POST as $key => $value)

        echo '<strong>'. $key .'</strong>:'. $this->input->post($key) .' <br/>';

?&gt;

</code></p>

&lt;?php endif; ?&gt;

That returns the entire array of from the $_POST array. But when I try to access one of the values with the code from #11 above, it just returns the number 1. Why won't it return the value that shows from the entire $_POST array?

Now maybe someone can explain this to me. If I use this code

Code:
&lt;?php $first_name = $_POST['first_name']; ?&gt;

<p>Thank You &lt;?php echo $first_name; ?&gt;</p>

I get "Thank You 1" on the page.

However, if I use this code

Code:
&lt;?php $first_name = $_POST['first_name']; 

echo "Thank You ".$first_name; ?&gt;

then it prints out "Thank You April". Is there something wrong with the way I've set the variable in the first example?

Thanks very much!

Jesse

Well I'm not certain what is going on here (as if you couldn't tell :red: ) but it appears to be working correctly now. Sorry for clogging up the board.
