Lets say you have the following inputs:
<INPUT TYPE='Checkbox' NAME='MrCheckBox' VALUE='ImaChecked!'>
<INPUT TYPE='Radio' NAME='ColorPreference' VALUE='Green'>
<INPUT TYPE='Radio' NAME='ColorPreference' VALUE='Brown'>
And you wanted MrCheckBox to be marked, and the ColorPreference to be Brown.
You would have PHP output this:
<INPUT TYPE='Checkbox' NAME='MrCheckBox' VALUE='ImaChecked!'
CHECKED>
<INPUT TYPE='Radio' NAME='ColorPreference' VALUE='Green'>
<INPUT TYPE='Radio' NAME='ColorPreference' VALUE='Brown'
CHECKED>
I normally do this:
1. Retrieve Info from DB
2. If ( ColorPreference = Green )
{
$GreenChecked = "CHECKED";
}
elseif ( ColorPreference = Brown )
{
$BrownChecked = "CHECKED";
}
<INPUT TYPE='Radio' NAME='ColorPreference' VALUE='Green'
$GreenChecked>
<INPUT TYPE='Radio' NAME='ColorPreference' VALUE='Brown'
$BrownChecked>
This way, one of those variables will contain the word CHECKED, which will
in turn, mark the desired radio button.
