Iterating over Parameters (Score:1)

by chromatic (983) on 2001.11.23 0:47 (#1942) Homepage Journal

If I follow what you mean, here are two things that could come in handy. First, CGI::param() returns a list of the form parameter names, if you pass it no arguments. Combine that with a grep, and you can pick out all parameters that begin with 'card_', for example.
Of course, if you give the same name to all of the checkboxes in a group, you can call CGI::param() with the name and assign the results to an array. That'll give you all the values.
Iterating over an array is easy.
