$this->input->post() not working for me - El Forum - 01-12-2009
[eluser]RS71[/eluser]
Hello,
I am currently trying to use $this->input->post() in my controller but it doesn't seem to be working.
I currently have it so a select has a name of grau[] (an array).
In the controller, I try to do something like:
Code:
$data['grau_field'] = 'grau[]';
$data['education_count'] = count( $this->input->post($data['grau_field']) );It doesn't seem to be showing the correct count, even though I can see that the POST values are there. (via the Profiler)
Could anybody please assist me?
Thanks in advance.

try removing the brackets from your grau_field value.

That would make the input not an array would it not? I need it as an array.

Ah I got it thanks.
I removed the brackets from the post() like you said.

Another question:
How can I retrieve a certain value from an array?
Code:
Array
(
[0] => ABC
[1] => XYZ
)How can I get the value for the second key?
