[FX.php List] Trying to read back an array

[Gjermund Gusland Thorsen]

Mine would look more or less like this:

               $_SESSION[$projectName][$recid]['description'] =
$_POST['description'] ;
               $_SESSION[$projectName][$recid]['type'] = $_POST['type'] ;
               $_SESSION[$projectName][$recid]['serial'] = $_POST['serial'] ;
               $_SESSION[$projectName][$recid]['problem'] = $_POST['problem'] ;
