Input checkbox name converts period signs into underlines on post
- by Rakoon
Hello
I am working on an image gallery at the moment. When a user is logged in, an x appears over each image and a checkbox next to it to enable the user to delete that image. Only if the checkbox is checked will the image be deleted.
They are both in a (one for each image in the gallery), the small image "x.gif" is an input type="image" that submits the $_POST form. The checkbox inherits the name of the image and is to prevent accidentally pressing the x button and deleting an image.
The problem is that the checkbox name, upon posting it gets converted from (for instance)
"Image.jpg" to "Image_jpg"
When i test it with print_r($_POST);
Should I create code for replacing _jpg or _gif into .jpg and .gif after the post or is there a way to make it possible to use period signs in input names?
Any help is greatly appreciated.
