Accessing data from form array with codeigniter

Question

I have a form like this

<form>
 <input type="text" name="personal_details[]" />
 <input type="text" name="personal_details[]" />

 <input type="text" name="pictures[]" />
 <input type="text" name="pictures[]" />
</form>

With php I can access data like this

$name    = $_POST['personal_details'][0];
$surname = $_POST['personal_details'][1];
etc.. etc

Is it possible to do this task with codeigniter input class ?

Answer 1

They work basically the same.

$personal_details = $this->input->post('personal_details');
$pictures = $this->input->post('pictures');

$name = $personal_details[0];
$surname = $personal_details[1];
