Hi I am having checkboxes in two columns and I want to have some of them selected initially. The checkboxes are to be checked on the basis of some data from the database. I am using the following loop to print the checkboxes and keep checked some of them. The problem is just one checkbox get checked when I want to get three or four or more checked. Can someone tell me how? I can do this when I print the checkboxes in one column but I want two or three column format and checked checkboxes. Any ideas????. the code is below cisman m m $count = count($array2); for ($i = 0; $i <= $count-1; $i=$i+$n_cols){ for ($j=0; $j <= ($n_cols-1); $j++ ){ for($index = 0; $index < count($my_comm_ids); $index++){ if($arr_comm_ids[$i+$j] == $my_comm_ids[$index]){ $checker = "CHECKED"; }else{ $checker = ""; } } echo " <TD>\n"; if(empty($arr_comm_ids[$i+$j])){ break; } echo "<input type=\"checkbox\" name=\"l_comm[]\" value=\"".$arr_comm_ids[$i+$j]."\" $checker>"; echo " </TD>\n"; echo " <TD>".$array2[$i+$j]."</TD>\n"; } echo " </TR>\n"; } __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
