Usually I would do that in JavaScript. Nevertheless it's possible in PHP too. I'm looking forward to your code, so we can discuss problems (if there are any).

kind regards

It looks (please correct me if I'm wrong) as if you want an additional input field added on pressing the 'ADD' button. and you don't want to retain the input (a page reload usually clears all fields).

a simplified version of your code could look like this

Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers

 <html>

  <head>

    <title></title>

    <style type="text/css">

input {

  display: block;   /* makes one <input> per line */

}

    </style>

  </head>

<?php

if($_POST["btnadd"] == "ADD") {

// add 1 to the row counter

    if (isset($_POST['count'])) $count = $_POST['count'] + 1;

// set value for first load

    else $count = 1;

}

if($_POST["btnremove"] == "REMOVE") {

// decrement the row counter

    $count = $_POST['count'] - 1;

// set minimum row number

    if ($count < 1) $count = 1;

}

?>

  <body>

<!-- call same file on submit -->

    <form name="form1" method="POST" action="<?php echo $_SERVER['PHP_SELF']; ?>">

 <?php 

// print $count rows

for ($i=1; $i<=$count; $i++) {

echo '      <input type="text" name="txt" align="center">';

}

?>

 <!-- you only need one set of buttons and only one counter for this script

      because every button would do the same -->

      <input type="submit" name="btnadd" id="btnadd" value="ADD">

      <input type="submit" name="btnremove" id="btnremove" value="REMOVE">

      <input type="hidden" name="count" value="<?php echo $count; ?>">

    </form>

  </body>

</html>

does the input fields contain any data? if not it doesn't matter. In the other case you have to retain the data anyhow (maybe something like <input name="line[]">). then you have to apply somehow a line number to the button to tell which values to drop. I have to think about this problem (this wouldn't be a problem in JS). still you need only one add-button.

general idea: name every submit button uniquely and check, which row this button belongs to.
[PHP]// get the 'number' of the pressed button
foreach (array_keys($_POST) as $key) {
if (preg_match('@^submit([0-9]+)$@', $key, $match) == 1) {
$no = $match[1];
$count--;
}
}

// remove value
unset($_POST['text'][$no]);
// re-index array
$retain = array_values($_POST['text']);

for ($i=0; $i<$count; $i++) {
echo ' <input type="text" name="text[]" value="' . $retain[$i] . '" />
<input type="submit" name="submit' . $i . '" value="remove" />
<br />';
}
[/PHP]
