PHP get value from post array

Question

I'm posting an array from a html form with the following input-tag:

<input type="text" name="new_service[1]['category']">

I get this array:

Array
(
    [1] => Array
        (
            ['category'] => 1
            ['description'] => asdasd
            ['price'] => asdasd
            ['time'] => 1
        )

)

When I try to get the category value with

echo $_POST['new_service'][1]['category'];

I get this error message:

Notice: Undefined index: category

What am I doing wrong?

The index you create this way is not category but 'category' i.e. you create an index that also has single quotes.

So to echo what you want you should use:

echo $_POST['new_service'][1]["'category'"];
