I have a Zend_Form that has 4 or more subforms.

/** Code Snippet **/ $bigForm = new Zend_Form();

    $littleForm1 = new Form_LittleForm1();
    $littleForm1->setMethod('post');

    $littleForm2 = new Form_LittleForm2();
    $littleForm2->setMethod('post');

    $bigForm->addSubForm($littleForm1,'littleForm1',0);
    $bigForm->addSubForm($littleForm2,'littleForm2',0);

On clicking the 'submit' button, I'm trying to print out the values entered into the forms, like so:

/** Code snippet, currently not validating, just printing **/

if($this->_request->getPost()){ $formData = array();

  foreach($bigForm->getSubForms() as $subForm){
        $formData = array_merge($formData, $subForm->getValues());      
  }
  /* Testing */
  echo "<pre>";
  print_r($formData);
  echo "</pre>";

}

The end result is that - all the elements in the form do get printed, but the values entered before posting the form don't get printed.

Any thoughts are appreciated...I have run around circles working on this!

Thanks in advance!
