USING CHECKBOXES IN A FORM If you're using a checkbox in a form and want test if the checkbox was checked, you must not specify any value in the checkbox input, otherwise it won't work. Id est : echo "<input type=\"checkbox\" name=\"cb\"> will work you can then test after submitting the form like this if ($cb) { //what to do if the box was checked } else { //what to do if the box wasn't checked } but echo "<input type=\"checkbox\" name\"cb\" value\"$cb\"> won't work. If your using the same "if" instruction than above, it will be always false. Believe me I spend hours wondering why it wasn't working!
