Hi mlseim,
Thank you once again and sorry for the confusion.
Yes, there would one radio option selected at any given point of time.
Along with the list of animals i have one radio box with text field next to it. Only on clicking this radio button the text field is highlighted. Clicking on this radio box the customer can any thing in it which will be inserted into petathome.
Html code is:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<body background="blue">
<form action="test_post.php" method="post">
Full Name: <input name="FullName" type="text" id="FullName" required="required" /><br />
<br />
Number: <input name="Number" type="text" id="Number" required="required" /><br />
<br />
Email Address: <input name="EmailAddress" type="text" id="EmailAddress" required="required" /><br /><br />
<br/>
Address: <input name="Address" type="text" id="Address" required="required" /><br />
<br />
Which animal do you want to keep?<br />
<script type="text/javascript">
var currentEnabled = null;
function enableElement(elem) {
if (currentEnabled) {
currentEnabled.disabled = true;
}
elem.disabled = false;
currentEnabled = elem;
}
</script>
<form action="">
<input type="radio" name="petathome[]" value="Dog"
onclick="enableElement(this.form.elements['inp1']);"> Dog

$flag=1;
}
if($flag==1){

// Insert data into mysql
$sql="INSERT INTO $tbl_name(FullName, Number, EmailAddress, Address, petathome)VALUES('$FullName', '$Number', '$EmailAddress', '$Address', '$pets')";
$result=mysql_query($sql);
// if successfully insert data into database, displays message "Successful".
