SunD_g,

I guess the function is executed more than once and you end up with an unknown number of added <input> elements named "nameN", "nameN+1", "nameN+2", "nameN+3", "nameN+4" etc., where N is a positive integer.

One strategy would be to write N to a hidden form field each time the function is called.

<input type="hidden" name="addedElements" value="0" />

...
cell3.appendChild(element2);
document.myForm.addedElements.value = rowCount;

In php, you can now do something like this:

$addedElements = (int)$_POST['addedElements'];
for($i=1; $i<=$addedElements; $i++){
    if(isset($_POST['name'.$i])){
        $child = $_POST['name'.$i];
        // do whatever you need to do with the user's entered value(s) here
    }
}

This should be error tollerant in that it will handle missing values up to $addedElements, eg, in case the series doesn't start at "name1".

(Nothing above is tested so will probably need debugging)
