I have a text file:
$string =

and a php code that reads from the text file and put the values into arrays;
<html>
<head>
<title>read</title>
</head>
<body>
<b><u> QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS QUIZ</u></b> <br /><>
<?php
$openFile = fopen("questionandanswers.txt", "r") or exit ("unable to open the text file");
$string = fread($openFile, filesize("questionandanswers.txt"));
//Regex to get from the first number to the string's end, so we ignore the Number Question... bit;
preg_match('/\d.*/', $string, $match);
//We get all the strings starting with a number until it finds another number (which will be the beginning of another question;
preg_match_all('/\d\D*/', $match[0], $results);
$qas = array(); // We prepare an array with all the questions/answers
foreach($results[0] as $result){
//Separating the answer from the string with all the answers.
list($question, $all_answers) = explode(':', $result);
//Separating the different answers
$answers_array = explode('.', $all_answers);
//Stuffing the question and the array with all the answers into the previously prepared array;
$qas[] = array('question' => $question, 'answers' => $answers_array);
}
//Looping through the array and outputting all the info into a form;
foreach($qas as $k => $v){
echo "<label>{$v['question']}</label><br/>";
echo "<select>";
//we loop through $v['answers'] because its an array within the array with all the answers.
foreach($v['answers'] as $answer){
echo "<option>$answer</option>";//the output
}
echo "</select>";
echo "<br/><br/>";
}
?>
</body>
</html>
I want to be able to put the selected individual answer in such a manner that they can be posted to a php script for processsing e.g $_POST = "";.
