Input html tag not parsing properly in php
- by Akaash
I have a database with names that I would like displayed in the form of a table with checkboxes. Everything works until I try to place the html tag into my php code. When I put the input tag in it gives me the error:
Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_STRING, expecting ',' or ';'
I can't see where I would put a comma or semi colon.
<form>
<?php
$name = $_POST['name'];
$host = "mysql16.000webhost.com";
$user_name = "a1611480_akaash";
$pwd = "****";
$database_name = "a1611480_akaash";
$db = mysql_connect($host, $user_name, $pwd);
mysql_select_db($database_name);
$result = mysql_query("SELECT name FROM Sort");
$var = array();
while ($row = mysql_fetch_array($result)) {
$var[] = $row['name'];
}
$unique = array_unique($var);
foreach ($unique as $value) {
echo "<p class = Body_text><label>$value</label> <input type="checkbox" name="name" value="$value" /> </p>\n";
}
?>
</form>
