From memory, I think the variables are converted from period to underscore though, for complex inputs like the name. For example, <strong>$_POST["input_2.1"]</strong> would become <strong>$_POST["input_2_1"]</strong>. You can try that, or dump the $_POST to see the names with 100% certainty. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/using-_post-to-get-the-values-of-checkbox-fields#post-67614 Mon, 23 Jul 2012 19:45:58 +0000 gingram815 67614@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>I am having trouble getting the values of fields that have an array such as the name, address, or checkbox fields. $_POST["input_fieldid"] works great when the value is a string such as text fields. I tried <code>$_POST[&quot;input_2.1&quot;]</code> to get the value particular item in a checkbox but it does not return anything. Trying the same sort of thing also does not work with the name field using "3.3" for the first name, for example.</p> <p>Any help would be greatly appreciated.</p> <p>Thank you </p>
