Hi, I'm new to php. Say I have a check box which is checked already. Now I need to uncheck

it and when I press the submit button, I should get the unchecked

value.

Can anyone help me on this. One.php if($qry[0]!=$login_type) { echo "<td class=tabhead align=center style=background-color:#CC66CC><input type=checkbox name=disable value=a".$count." checked DISABLED /></br>".$slot_value."</td>"; } else { echo "<td class=tabhead align=center style=background-color:#00CCCC><input type=checkbox name=enable[] value='--user ".$slot_value." --ne ".$nen." --timespec ".$slt."' checked

</br>".$slot_value."</td>";

} One.php calls Two.php Two.php $enable_slot= $_POST['enable']; $uncheck_slot= $_POST['uncheck']; if ($enable_slot){ echo "$enable_slot"; foreach($enable_slot as &$a) { echo "<p>".$a." --unreserve</p>"; } } I get only the results only if checked. I think I'm doing a mistake in

the code in red font. regards, -rummy

When you uncheck a checkbox in an HTML form, it will not be submitted. http://www.w3.org/TR/html401/interact/forms.html#checkbox The part on the above page talking about "only "on" checkbox controls can become successful." is the key here. The successful part links here: http://www.w3.org/TR/html401/interact/forms.html#successful-controls This explains that the definition of a successful checkbox submission is one that is "on". To have a checkbox in the "on" state means that it has to be checked. So, any checkbox that is /not/ checked is considered "off" or "undefined" will not be submitted because it is not valid.

What I do in this case is define it to unchecked in the php code and then use the ternary operator to test it $checkbox1 = 0; $checkbox1 = (isset($_POST['check1'])) ? 1: 0 ; Bastien
