Re: php and javascript

Put square brackets after the name of your checkboxes..... <input type=checkbox name=list[] value="1">Home<br> <input type=checkbox name=list[] value="2">Office<br> etc.... Then you will be able to access all the boxes checked on your post page in an array.... $_POST['list'] shaun wrote:

Hi, I'm not sure if this is a PHP or a JavaScript question but I have found the following code to enable me to select all of the checkboxes on my form. <SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript"> <!-- Begin var checkflag = "false"; function check(field) { if (checkflag == "false") { for (i = 0; i < field.length; i++) { field[i].checked = true;} checkflag = "true"; return "Uncheck all"; } else { for (i = 0; i < field.length; i++) { field[i].checked = false; } checkflag = "false"; return "Check all"; } } // End --> </script> <form name=mon_formulaire action="" method=post> <table> <b>Where do you connect to the Internet from?</b><br> <input type=checkbox name=list value="1">Home<br> <input type=checkbox name=list value="2">Office<br> <input type=checkbox name=list value="3">Friends' home<br> <input type=checkbox name=list value="4">Post office<br> <input type=checkbox name=list value="5">Internet Café<br> <br> <input type=button value="Check all" onClick="this.value=check(this.form.list)"> </form> The problem is that in the example all of the boxes are called list and i need to name each checkbox on my form with a different user_id so that i can collect the data sent from the form, is there a way around this? Thanks in advance for any advice offered.
