Can i set value in multiple input in PHP?

Can I do something like this?

<input type="hidden" name="for_person[]" miltiple="multiple" value="<?php echo $request_control['personal_task']; ?>">

I guess not, cause output in value="" tag is "Array" of course.

You can improvise for something like this:

<?php foreach($request_control['personal_task'] as $task): ?>
    <input type="hidden" name="for_person[]" multiple="multiple" 
        value="<?= $task ?>">
<?php endforeach; ?>

You could use json_encode or serialize to produce a string outof the array and pass via the hidden input. At server you can get it back via json_decode or unserialize.

Like

<input type="hidden" name="for_person" value="<?php echo json_encode($request_control['personal_task']); ?>" />

or 

<input type="hidden" name="for_person" value="<?php echo serialize($request_control['personal_task']); ?>" />

You can set miltiple values for a name using miltiple inputs:

<input type="hidden" name="for_person[]" value="1">
<input type="hidden" name="for_person[]" value="2">

Just loop over your array using foreach or while or for....
