Question

I am not writing my exact code here but I am giving the basic idea.

<form action="thispageagain.php">

for($i=0; $i<$n; $i++){
echo "<input type=\"submit\" value=\"view post\" />";
}

</form>

Now when someone click on view post i have to send post id for that post. How can I do this. I have to use post method here.

Answer 1

you need to send the post id right… if i did not get your question wrong then you can do it as follow.. i assume that $i represents your post id that you want to send.

<?php
  if(isset($_POST['formsubmitted']) && $_POST['formsubmitted'] === 'Y'){
      $postId = array_keys($_POST['btnviewPost']);
      print_r( $postId);
  }
?>
<form action="" method="post">
 <input type="hidden" name="formsubmitted" value="Y" />
 <?php for($i=0;$i<$n;$i++){?>
    <input type="submit" value="view post" name="btnviewPost[<?php echo $i?>]" />
 <?php }?> 
</form>
