Get Array Value - php

Question

I have one form that have a select box inside while-loop. I try to get the data or value from that select box. Below is my form code.
<form role="form" method="post" action="test2.php" >
<?php
$endDate = '2014-01-28';
$startDate = '2014-01-27';
$daydiff = floor( ( strtotime( $endDate ) - strtotime( $startDate ) ) / 86400 );
$x=0;
while($x<=$daydiff)
{
?>
<select class="form-control" name="day_<?php echo $x; ?>">
<option value="monday">Monday</option>
<option value="tuesday">Tuesday</option>
<option value="wednesday">Wednesday</option>
<option value="thursday">Thursday</option>
</select>
<select class="form-control" name="time_<?php echo $x; ?>">
<option value="10am">10am</option>
<option value="11am">11am</option>
<option value="12pm">12pm</option>
<option value="1pm">1pm</option>
</select>
<?php
$x++;
}
?>
<input type="hidden" name="count" value="<?php echo $x ?>"/>
<button type="submit" name="submit" class="btn btn-primary btn-lg btn-block">Submit</button>
</form>
Below is my "test2.php".
<?php
for ($i = 0; $i < $_POST['count']; $i++){
$day_var = 'day_' . $i;
$days_list[] = $_POST[$day_var];
$time_var = 'time_' . $i;
$time_list[] = $_POST[$time_var];
echo ($_POST[$day_var]);
echo ($_POST[$time_var]);
}
?>
When I submit it will echo "monday10tuesday11am" how can I extract the value separately i.e. monday10 and tuesday11am?

Answer 1

You can replace your numbering scheme and variable variables with a simple array in HTML.
<select class="form-control" name="day[<?php echo $x; ?>]">
<select class="form-control" name="time[<?php echo $x; ?>]">
$days_list[] = $_POST[$day];
$time_list[] = $_POST[$time];
This would greatly simplify your form2.php. Otherwise, please try to explain what results you are expecting with the code you have.

Answer 2

just add some space to your echo.
echo ($_POST[$day_var]).' '.($_POST[$time_var]);
