Re: Array of CheckBoxes

Putting the square array brackets in the name field of the checkbox will make it an array. <input type="checkbox" name="array_of_checkboxes[]"> You can then rip through the created array using your preferred method while(list($key, $value) = each($array_of_checkboxes)) /* do stuff */ } or whatever floats your boat. -- Cheers, Morgan Grubb.

Once the form is passed away, the information of the checked boxes should be inserted into a DB. The thing is that I don't like to use 'tons' of "if" statements 'cause it will have way too many check boxes. Is there any way of creating an Array which holds TRUE for check boxes that where selected and NULL for the ones leaved clear? The final table with the data stored should look like this: +---------+-----------------+-----------+-----------+-----------+------- -----+-----------+ | userid | date | option1 | option2 | option3 | option4 | option5 | +---------+-----------------+-----------+-----------+-----------+------- -----+-----------+ | 1 | 2002-06-25 | true | true | false | false | true | | 2 | 2002-06-25 | false | true | true | false | false | | 2 | 2002-06-25 | true | false | false | true | true | +---------+-----------------+-----------+-----------+-----------+------- -----+-----------+ Haw can this be achieved? If no can do, I will have to do if. else if. else if. else if. and way too far down the page. else.
