Dynamic text fields values into PHP array - php

Question

I have a dynamic web form that creates text after the user tells it how many he wants, what I want to do, is to get the info of those text fields into the next form, I've read a question that is
pretty much what I want to do;
But I haven't had any luck so far;
for ($i = 1; $i <= $quantity; $i++) {
echo "<input type='text' class='text' name='classEmpleado[]' id='empleado$i' />";}
When I try to retrieve them I use this;
$empleado[] = $_POST['classEmpleado[]'];
$i = 0;
for ($i = 1; $i <= $quantity; $i++) {
echo "$empleado[$i]<BR><BR>";
}
But I get the error Undefined index: classEmpleado[]
What am I doing wrong?
ANSWERED!
For anyone looking for the same thing, look at the response of Sherbrow,
And you would just have to edit the loop to this
$empleado[] = $_POST['classEmpleado[]'];
$i = 0;
for ($i = 0; $i < $quantity; $i++) {
echo "$empleado[$i]<BR><BR>";
}

Answer 1

If $empleado is not previously declared or just empty, you are looking for that
$empleado = $_POST['classEmpleado']
But if $empleado is an array, and contains data, you may want to merge everything in one only array
$empleado = array_merge($empleado, $_POST['classEmpleado']);
Whichever way you choose, there should be a check to be certain that $_POST['classEmpleado'] is defined and is an array. Something like :
if(isset($_POST['classEmpleado']) && is_array($_POST['classEmpleado'])) {
/* ... */
}

Answer 2

Try $empleado[] = $_POST['classEmpleado'];
When you put name[] at the end of the fieldname, it will be passed to PHP as an array in $_POST with the key of name like so: $_POST['name'] = array(1,2,3,4);

Answer 3

This statement here is wrong ($empleado[] = $_POST['classEmpleado[]'])
If you want to access $_POST the input field named classEmpleado[], you have to do so :
for($i=0; $i<count($_POST['classEmpleado']); $i++)
{
echo $_POST['classEmpleado'][$i] . '<br /><br />';
}
