in reply to Re: Re: Re: passing an array to a checkbox_group
in thread passing an array to a checkbox_group

OK - 'main' contains the form which calls 'second'

main: 
use CGI;
$query = new CGI;
print $query->start_multipart_form("POST","second");
print $query->checkbox_group(-name=>'FieldNames',
                             -value=>[ @array ]);
$query->param(    -name=>'Tbl1',
                  -value=>'tabname';
print $query->submit('doWhat','Print Fields');
print $query->end_form;

second: 
use CGI;
$query = new CGI;
$SFields = join(", ",$query->param('FieldNames'));
$STab    = $query->param('Tbl1');

[download]
The result is:
$SFields = Date, Forename, Middle, School
$STab = Nothing?????
