Hello! I have one script that has a bunch of checkboxes in a form, all them with different names. As you know the <form> only submit the ones that are checked. I would like to know witch ones the user checked (they will come in the path as variables I suppose) because I need to make a sum of the ones that are checked, and right now I am using isset() to verify before I sum. This is way too bad, because as I have 48 checkboxes I have too many IFs. Please help! Rom Example: this is what I am doing: script 1: <form action=script2.php> <input type=checkbox name=cb01 value=729> <input type=checkbox name=cb02 value=815> <input type=checkbox name=cb03 value=36> <input type=checkbox name=cb04 value=988> <input type=checkbox name=cb05 value=215> <input type=checkbox name=cb06 value=45446> <input type=checkbox name=cb07 value=22> <input type=checkbox name=cb08 value=52564> <input type=checkbox name=cb09 value=455> <input type=checkbox name=cb10 value=21132> </form> script 2: $sum = 0; if (isset($cb01)) $sum = $sum + $cb01; if (isset($cb02)) $sum = $sum + $cb02; if (isset($cb03)) $sum = $sum + $cb03; if (isset($cb04)) $sum = $sum + $cb04; if (isset($cb05)) $sum = $sum + $cb05; if (isset($cb06)) $sum = $sum + $cb06; if (isset($cb07)) $sum = $sum + $cb07; if (isset($cb08)) $sum = $sum + $cb08; if (isset($cb09)) $sum = $sum + $cb09; if (isset($cb10)) $sum = $sum + $cb10; echo $sum;
