Array question for input fields

[want-a-be]

:confused; Can you have an array for a input name field. For example:

<input type="hidden" name="passID[cnt]" value="#id#">
<input type="text" name="passingThis[cnt]" value="#DB_value#">

I read a DB table displaying the data on the screen and they can change a
couple of different fields for each of the records. All the records fields I
want with the same name so I can just go thru the array and update the DB. I
can display an array value fine in the calling program, but once I go to the
called program, it gives me an error.

Variable PASSINGTHIS is undefined.

The error occurred in
E:\inetpub\wwwroot\telecom\maintenance\EquipmentMa inList_PMUpdate.cfm: line 1

1 : <cfoutput>#passingThis[1]#</cfoutput>


I do have the cnt variable starting at 1 and going until no more records are
listed. I even hardcoded the cnt at 1.
I look at my debug and the value is listed:

Form Fields:

FIELDNAMES=TESTHOLD[1],TESTHOLD[2],PASSINGTHIS[1],HOLDRECCNT,P_ID(1),P_SCHEDULE(
1),P_SCHEDULEMONTH(1),P_LASTMAINTDATE1,P_ID(2),P_S CHEDULE(2),P_SCHEDULEMONTH(2),
P_LASTMAINTDATE2,P_ID(3),P_SCHEDULE(3),P_SCHEDULEM ONTH(3),P_LASTMAINTDATE3,P_ID(
4),P_SCHEDULE(4),P_SCHEDULEMONTH(4),P_LASTMAINTDAT E4,SUBMITPM
HOLDRECCNT=4
PASSINGTHIS[1]=Yes it passed



Any help would be great. Thanks.

The easiest way is something like:

<input type="hidden" name="passID#cnt#" value="#id#">
<input type="text" name="passingThis#cnt#" value="#DB_value#">

Then on the Action page they would be referenced as

Form["PassID" & i] and Form["passingThis" & i]

Where i would be a counter for each #cnt# number on the submitting page.

Larry,

I did end up coding it a lot like you had shown. It works fine that way I
just thought an array was a lot cleaner to use. I could get the Array length
to use in my loop but I can get that another way.

Thanks for the reply.
