Generating a HTTP POST request with dynamic contents

I find the following code sample on how to generate a HTTP POST with multipart/form-data encoding; however, in my case, I won't know which parameters are available until runtime. For example, I may have only 'name' and 'email'. Is there a way I can work around it and provide a dynamic list of parameters? Thanks.

We'll really need a little more context as to the data structures you'll be working with.

No, I don't know how many items I will have for Content. For example, I may have "name" and "email" only, but "gender", "born" and "init" won't be available. The script need to be flexible enough to handle unknown number of contents.

Can you use a foreach loop and test for possible keys?

You trying to do like facebook(i think) or something, click the link that then shows the next field if you want it? IE:
name:
Email:

link-add your address
link-add your website

If thats what your doing, Id just render them all to the page, just display:none, and give the fields the database column names so you could do a foreach like suggested. Something like


If the fields are dynamica nd the user can make them, its all in your db. There needs to be a table for form and then elements.

In the above example, don't forget to sanitize $k and $v..

Yup and it would be $sql.=whatever or it would just keep rewriting.
