[PHP] Two word array Value

[Mark Bomgardner]

I am trying to use array's to populate a group of check boxes for a form.  I
am getting the checkboxes to print OK, but when the form is posted I am only
getting part of the array.

 

Form Page:

 

$vars = array(Main Classroom = Main Classroom, Break Out Classroom =
Break Out Classroom, Gym = Gym,

Firearms Range = Firearms Range, EVOC Track = EVOC Track);

 

 

$cols = 4;

echo form method=post action=twocoltests.phptabletrtd
colspan=.$cols. align=centerEquipment Needed/tdtr;

foreach($vars as $key = $value){

 if (($cols % 4) == 0 ){ echo /trtr; }



  echo tdinput name=.$key. type=checkbox
value=.$value./tdtd.$value./td;

  $cols++;

}

 

echo /tr/table;

echo br /;

 

When I submit the form I am only getting the following having checked the
boxes for Mail Classroom and Break Out Classroom.  If I eliminate the spaces
between the words, I get everything, but when I put the spaces between the
words in the array, it cuts off the second word.  Not sure what is
happening?

 

Array ( [Main] = Main [Break] = Break [Submit] = Submit )

Try:

  echo tdinput name=.urlencode($key). type=checkbox
value=.urlencode($value)./tdtd. $value./td;

Looks like someone's working with the police academy, or something
similar.  Reminds me I think I have to recert my CEVO and EVOC

Anyway, using spaces in HTML form name and ID compartments is
illegal, and you're not encapsulating the data in quotes.  So HTML
thinks that the first word of the bunch is the name of the form
element, then skips the rest.  For valid HTML:

?php
// foreach
echo tdinput name=\.str_replace(' ','_',$key).\
type=\checkbox\ value=\.$value.\/tdtd.$value./td;
?

Otherwise, if you still want to use spaced form field names, you
can enclose them in quotes (as shown above) and the browser will
probably automatically urlencode() the data on submit.
