A&M Form Table Field Submission

Question

I'm trying to submit a form containing items from a users' cart, using A&M forms, but cannot seem to populate the table field with the items. I'm using the code below:

{% for item in cart.lineItems %}
    <input type="hidden" name="fields[selections][{{loop.index}}][col1]" value="{{item.qty}} x {{item.description}}">
{% endfor %}

For some reason, though, it's creating the rows in the table, but not actually populating it with any content. Any idea what to do to get it to work?

Thanks!

I know I'm a bit late to this, but I think it's because your {{ loop.index }} is not 0-indexed, which is necessary for the array. It should look like this:

<input type="hidden" name="fields[selections][{{ loop.index0 }}][col1]" value="{{ item.qty }} x {{ item.description }}">

You also need an extra valueless hidden field above the loop to collect all the values into one array:

<input type="hidden" name="fields[selections]" value="">
