Hello,
I am having some trouble with a form which consists of a number of courses, each of which has a checkbox to choose it. I have each checkbox formed with the following code:
<input type="checkbox" name="chosenClass[]" value="1" /> Course 1
<input type="checkbox" name="chosenClass[]" value="2" /> Course 2
<input type="checkbox" name="chosenClass[]" value="3" /> Course 3
<input type="checkbox" name="chosenClass[]" value="4" /> Course 4
The reason I chose to use the array as the name is because I got my javascript validation to work with it. (I know, it's sad
). It will alert the user if they have not checked at least one checkbox.
When the user hits 'submit', the data gets sent to the next php page (via POST). There, I try to extract the data from the stream like so:
foreach($_POST['chosenClass'] as $key => $value)
{
print $varname + " = $varname before";
print $varname + " = $key before";
print $varname + " = $value before";
$varname = "session".$key;
$$varname = $value;
print $varname + " = $varname after";
print $varname + " = $key after";
print $varname + " = $value after";
print "************";
}
The print statements are for testing.
What I get is this:
000000************000000************000000************
Does anyone have any idea of what I'm doing wrong? I'm using a variable variable.
Ideally, I wanted to just be able to capture a number or boolean value so that I can push this into a table in MySQL.
Help!!
Much obliged to you all.
