How to pass array of data from Joomla view form and get the array of data in Joomla Controller

[Dinesh]

In view/default.php:

<form action="<?php echo JRoute::_('index.php?option=com_scheduler&view=report');?>" method="post" name="rform">

<input type="submit" class="button" value="Generate Report" />

<input type="hidden" name="task" value="report.generate" />

<input type="hidden" name="data" value="<?php echo $this->epsiode; ?>" />

</form>

Where $this->episode is an array of data.

In controllers/report.php:

function generate(){

    $items = JRequest::getVar('data',array(), 'post', 'array');

    print_r($items);

}

The output is

Array ( [0] => Array )

Please suggest me how to get the array data. I'm using Joomla version 2.5.x.

Maybe you can try :

<?php 

foreach($this->epsiode as $dataItem) {

?>

<input type="hidden" name="data[]" value="<?php echo $dataItem; ?>" />

<?php 

}

?>

That should work !
