How To Specify Input Values for Checkboxes? - PHP Script Tips - Processing Web Forms
✍: FYIcenter.com
Checkboxes can be used in a form for two situations:
The sample PHP script page below is a modified version of submit_comments.php that has one group of multiple checkboxes and single switch:
<?php print("<html><form action=processing_forms.php method=post>"); print("<table><tr><td colspan=2>Please enter and submit your" ." comments about FYICenter.com:</td></tr>"); print("<tr><td>Your Name:</td>" ."<td><input type=text name=name></td></tr>\n"); print("<tr><td>Site Visited:</td><td>" ."<input type=checkbox name=site value=dev>Dev FYI Center " ."<input type=checkbox name=site value=sqa>SQA FYI Center " ."<input type=checkbox name=site value=dba>DBA FYI Center " ."</td></tr>\n"); print("<tr><td>Like Site:</td>" ."<td><input type=checkbox name=rate></td></tr>\n"); print("<tr><td>Comments:</td>" ."<td><input type=text name=comment></td></tr>\n"); print("<tr><td colspan=2><input type=submit><td></tr></table>\n"); print("</form></html>\n"); ?>
If you submit the form with this page, you will get something like this:
Number of values: 4 name = Peter site = dba rate = on comment = All good sites
But there is a problem with script in processing_forms.php. It picks up only one of the input values selected from the checkbox group. See the next tip for solutions.
