I have a form with checkboxes, each one has a value. When the registered user select any checkbox the value is incremented (the summation) and then then registred user save his

selection of checkbox if he satisfied with the result of summation into database all this work fine ...i want to enable the registred user to view his selection history by retriving and displaying the checkboxes he selected in a page with thier values ... How I can do that?

I'm just able to save the selected checkboxes as choice 1, choice 2, for example ..

I want to view the selected checkboxes that is saved in database as the appear in the page when the user first select them: for example if the registred user selects these 3 options

  • LEAD DEEP KEEL (1825)
  • FULLY BATTENED MAINSAIL (558)
  • TEAK SIDE DECKS (2889)

They will be saved as for example (choice1, choice2, choice3).

But if he want to view selected checkboxes the appear exactly as first he selects them:

  • LEAD DEEP KEEL (1825)
  • FULLY BATTENED MAINSAIL (558)
  • TEAK SIDE DECKS (2889)

This is my user table:

$query="CREATE TABLE User( 
user_id      varchar(20), 
password     varchar(40),
user_type    varchar(20),
firstname    varchar(30),
lastname     varchar(30),
street   varchar(50),
city         varchar(50),
county   varchar(50),
post_code    varchar(10),
country      varchar(50),
gender   varchar(6),
dob      varchar(15),
tel_no   varchar(50),
vals         varchar(50),
email        varchar(50))";

and the code to inser the options selected to database

<?php

include("databaseconnection.php");

$str = '';

foreach($_POST as $key => $val)

if (strpos($key,'choice') !== false)
 $str .= $key.',';


$query = "INSERT INTO User (vals) VALUES('$str')";
$result=mysql_query($query,$conn);
if ($result)
{
     (mysql_error();
}
else
{  
echo " done";      
}

?>

And this is my form:

function checkTotal() { document.listForm.total.value = ''; var sum = 0; for (i=0;i

<form name="listForm" method="post" action="insert_options.php" >
<TABLE cellPadding=3 width=600 border=0>
