Too Many Inputs In Html Form

[sylvest]

Hi,

 

I have an HTML form with a large number of inputs on it. Most of them are <select> elements each with 6 options. There are currently 1295 of these selects, plus a few other inputs, but the number is not constant, since the form is generated dynamically, and it depends on the number of rows and the number of columns for the currently selected period. In the $_POST array it seems that I am only receiving 1000 values, which means that some of the ones I need I am not receiving. I have tried changing the value of max_input_vars in /home/myaccount/public_html/php.ini from 1000 to 10000, but this does not seem to have improved anything. Do I have to do anything (e.g. restart the server) for it to read this file? Or is this the wrong way of changing this limit? Or do I need to reduce the number of inputs in some way (it's not easy to see a way to do this without a lot of Javascript, which I have been trying to avoid).

 

Thanks - Rowan

Hi,

 

I am sorry that no one has replied to your question yet, but there is no reason to post the same question twice (with a few hours between).

I have removed the second post.
