Hi,

I need a bit of help with an array. I’m posting quantities through a form and picking it up as an array which when printed looks like this:  
Array ( [item1] =\> 4 [item2] =\> 1 )

What I want to do is now extract that data and display it as a list similar to:  
item1, item1, item1, item1, item2, item2

Any ideas?

Thanks  
Phil
