Working with Form Array's in Coldfusion?
- by Jakub
I have no idea how to handle this in coldfusion 9, I have a form being submitted (POST) with element checkboxes, called items[].
When I do a <cfdump var="#form#" /> no-problem, I get all the items shown with the proper names like items[] eg:
struct
ITEMS[] 13,14
FIELDNAMES ITEMS[]
however doing a <cfdump var="#form.items[]#" /> results in an error. How do I access the CF9 field values? Somehow loop through it?
I cannot seem to do anything with the array to get the id's out of it? Thoughts, I'm kindof stumped and coldfusion isn't the easiest language to find examples / references on the net ;)
Is there a correct way to deal with this? I need to get the ID's out of there so I can referenc what lines were checked in the form, so I can follow up with an action.
Thanks!
