PHP Form checkbox question
- by Sef
Hello,
I have a form that takes the following inputs:
Name: IBM
Surface(in m^2): 9
Floor: (Checkbox1)
Phone: (Checkbox2)
Network: (Checkbox3)
Button to send to a next php page.
All those values above are represented in a table when i press the submit button.
The first two (name and surname) are properly displayed in the table.
The problem is with the checkboxes. If i select the first checkbox the value in the table should be presented with 1. If its not selected the value in the table should be empty.
echo "<td>$Name</td>"; // works properly
echo "<td>$Surface</td>"; // works properly
echo "<td>....no idea for the checkboxes</td>;
Some part of my php code with the variables:
<?php
if (!empty($_POST))
{
$standnaam = $_POST["name"];
$oppervlakte = $_POST["surface"];
$verdieping = $_POST["floor"];
$telefoon = $_POST["telefoon"];
$netwerk = $_POST["netwerk"];
if (is_numeric($surface))
{
$_SESSION["name"]=$name;
$_SESSION["surface"]=$surface;
header("Location:ExpoOverzicht.php");
}
else
{
echo "<h1>Wrong input, Pleasee fill in again</h1>";
}
if(!empty($floor) && ($phone) && ($network))
{
$_SESSION["floor"]=$floor;
$_SESSION["phone"]=$phone;
$_SESSION["network"]=$network;
header("Location:ExpoOverzicht.php");
}
}
?>
Second page with table:
<?php
$name= $_SESSION["name"];
$surface= $_SESSION["surface"];
$floor= $_SESSION["floor"];
$phone= $_SESSION["phone"];
$network= $_SESSION["network"];
echo "<table class=\"tableExpo\">";
echo "<th>name</th>";
echo "<th>surface</th>";
echo "<th>floor</th>";
echo "<th>phone</th>";
echo "<th>network</th>";
echo "<th>total price</th>";
for($i=0; $i <= $_SESSION["name"]; $i++)
{
echo "<tr>";
echo "<td>$name</td>"; // gives right output
echo "<td>$surface</td>"; // gives right output
echo "<td>...</td>"; //wrong output (ment for checkbox 1)
echo "<td>...</td>"; //wrong output (ment for checkbox 2)
echo "<td>...</td>"; //wrong output (ment for checkbox 3)
echo "<td>....</td>";
echo "</tr>;";
}
echo "</table>";
<form action="<?php echo $_SERVER["PHP_SELF"]; ?>" method="post" id="form1">
<h1>Vul de gegevens in</h1>
<table>
<tr>
<td>Name:</td>
<td><input type="text" name="name" size="18"/></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Surface(in m^2):</td>
<td><input type="text" name="surface" size="6"/></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Floor:</td>
<td><input type="checkbox" name="floor" value="floor"/></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Phone:</td>
<td><input type="checkbox" name="phone" value="phone"/></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Network:</td>
<td><input type="checkbox" name="network" value="network"/></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td><input type="submit" name="verzenden" value="Verzenden"/></td>
</tr>
</table>
There might be a few spelling mistakes since i had to translate it.
Best regards.
