copied!<p>I have a page that pulls 5 random rows from a table. It looks similar to the below.</p> <pre><code><table> <tr> <td><input type = 'radio' name='bills[1]' value = 'y'><label for='1'>Yes</label> </td> <td><input type = 'radio' name='bills[1]' value = 'n'><label for='1'>No</label> </td> </tr> <tr> <td><input type = 'radio' name='bills[8]' value = 'y'><label for='8'>Yes</label> </td> <td><input type = 'radio' name='bills[8]' value = 'n'><label for='8'>No</label> </td> </tr> <tr> <td><input type = 'radio' name='bills[2]' value = 'y'><label for='2'>Yes</label> </td> <td><input type = 'radio' name='bills[2]' value = 'n'><label for='2'>No</label> </td> </tr> <tr> <td><input type = 'radio' name='bills[6]' value = 'y'><label for='6'>Yes</label> </td> <td><input type = 'radio' name='bills[6]' value = 'n'><label for='6'>No</label> </td> </tr> <tr> <td><input type = 'radio' name='bills[3]' value = 'y'><label for='3'>Yes</label> </td> <td><input type = 'radio' name='bills[3]' value = 'n'><label for='3'>No</label> </td> </tr> </table> </code></pre> <p>This returns an array that looks like the following,</p> <pre><code>Array ( [bills] => Array ( [6] => y [2] => n [5] => n [1] => y [8] => y ) ) </code></pre> <p>By using a <code>foreach($_POST['bills'] as $bill)</code> statement I can loop through that array, but how do I get the value of the id, and its respective answer? In the above case, 6, 2, 5, 1, 8.</p>

Querying!

An individual column

Larger individual text columns get their own page to allow for proper reading.
