    <p>I have the following code that generates my form on my html page</p> <pre><code>&lt;input type="hidden" name="name[&lt;? echo $productid; ?&gt;]" value="&lt;? echo $rows["id"];?&gt;"&gt; &lt;select name="name&lt;? echo $rows["id"]; ?&gt;" &gt; &lt;? for($i = 0; $i &lt;= sizeof($_SESSION['people']['name']); $i++){ echo "&lt;option&gt;"; echo $_SESSION['people']['name'][$i]; echo "&lt;/option&gt;"; } echo "&lt;/select&gt;"; ?&gt; </code></pre> <p>then, this form is submited to a page that is currently holding </p> <pre><code>var_dump($_POST); </code></pre> <p>and its printing out the following</p> <pre><code>array(3) { ["name"]=&gt; array(2) { [2]=&gt; string(1) "2" [6]=&gt; string(1) "6" } ["name2"]=&gt; string(12) "first person" ["name6"]=&gt; string(15) "andother person" } </code></pre> <p>However, as you can see, both names are being posted properly, however they are not properly associated.</p> <p>string(1) is pointing to both 6 and 2. these are my product numbers and they need to be paired with a name.</p> <p>can you please let me know how i can cleanup my form and properly with a a foreach loop, extract each attribute. ie the name, and the id number ( 6, 2 ...) </p> <p>basically, i wanna know which name is being associated with which product id number => 2, 6, etc... i want the name to be save as $name and the id as $id. then insert to table (name, id) values ( $name, $id)... however, it should be in a loop to grab all of the $names and $ids. so the first run through, it should grab "first Person and group it with 2" 2nd run through, it should grab "another person and group it with 6"</p> <p>Sorry, english is not my first language. Please excuse any poor grammer. </p>

    1. COstring(1) is simply referring to the type and length of the strings. "2" and "6" are both strings that are one character long, so they will both have string(1) associated with them

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
