Editor loop problem

I've created a small cms to edit articles on my site. I have an option to select a checkbox next to each article and then press the edit button so I can edit multiple articles at once. Each content textarea field is replaced by FCKeditor.

So in PHP I have a while loop which returns each row of data (each article), and places it into a fieldset of which the content field is FCKeditor.

This is, however, returning the same value in the iframe of FCKeditor for every article, even though the display:none input field has the correct values (which are different).

$blog_content = $row['blog_content'];
      
$oFCKeditor = new FCKeditor('blog_content[]') ;
$oFCKeditor->BasePath = '../../add_ons/fckeditor/' ;
$oFCKeditor->ToolbarSet = 'Basic';
$oFCKeditor->Value = $blog_content ;
$oFCKeditor->Create() ;

The html that is being poduced:

Article one - value of FCKeditor field = 'Content for the first article here' - Actual value = 'Content for the first article here':

<input type="hidden" id="blog_content[]" name="blog_content[]" value="Content for the first article here" style="display:none" /><input type="hidden" id="blog_content[]___Config" value="" style="display:none" /><iframe id="blog_content[]___Frame" src="../../add_ons/fckeditor/editor/fckeditor.html?InstanceName=blog_content[]&amp;Toolbar=Basic" width="100%" height="200" frameborder="0" scrolling="no"></iframe>

Article two - value of FCKeditor field = 'Content for the first article here' - Actual value = 'Different content here for the second article which isn't appearing in FCKeditor field':

<input type="hidden" id="blog_content[]" name="blog_content[]" value="Different content here for the second article which isn't appearing in FCKeditor field" style="display:none" /><input type="hidden" id="blog_content[]___Config" value="" style="display:none" /><iframe id="blog_content[]___Frame" src="../../add_ons/fckeditor/editor/fckeditor.html?InstanceName=blog_content[]&amp;Toolbar=Basic" width="100%" height="200" frameborder="0" scrolling="no"></iframe>

Has anyone got any ideas?

Thanks thanks.

In context:


for ($i = 0; $i<count($_POST["blog_id"]); $i++) {
      $edit_blog_id = $_POST["blog_id"][$i];
      $query = "SELECT * FROM blog WHERE blog_id = $edit_blog_id";
      $result = @mysql_query ($query);
      
      if ($result) {

while ($row = mysql_fetch_array ($result, MYSQL_ASSOC)) {

      echo '<fieldset class="project_cms">
      <h3>' . $project_title_split[0] . '</h3>
      <p><label for="blog_title">Title</label> <input type="text" name="blog_title[]" value="' . $row['blog_title'] . '" /></p>
      <p><label for="blog_content">Content</label></p> 
      
      <div class="editor">';

$blog_content = $row['blog_content'];
$trans = array('\n' => '', '\r' => '', '&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;' => '');
$blog_content = strtr($blog_content, $trans);
$trans = array('&lt;' => '<', '&gt;' => '>', '&quot;' => '"');
$blog_content = strtr(stripslashes($blog_content), $trans);
         
$oFCKeditor = new FCKeditor('blog_content[]') ;
$oFCKeditor->BasePath = '../../add_ons/fckeditor/' ;
$oFCKeditor->ToolbarSet = 'Basic';
$oFCKeditor->Value = $blog_content ;
$oFCKeditor->Create() ;
         
      echo '<!--editor--></div>

      <p><label for="blog_image">Image</label> <input type="text" name="blog_image[]" value="' . $row['blog_image'] . '" /><input type="hidden" name="blog_id[]" value="' . $row['blog_id'] . '" /></p>
      </fieldset>';
      }
}

Re: Editor loop problem

You cannot have '[' and ']' in id attributes and you are using the same ID for all of them, confusing the editor. The fact that there's display:none means nothing - ID's must be unique within HTML, not only within DOM.
