ok...all i want to do if for a person to be able to pick a category...by a number...and then enter a number...and then be able to either go to another category...or add what he/she has already entered altogether....doing all of this w/ arrays.....setting them up is pretty easy...but including them in a loop...well, is still easy...but i can't even figure it out enough to get some sample code for you guys...can you help me get started?
