RE: [PHP] Checkboxe problem

2002-02-05 Thread Niklas Lampén 

There is no way. How would you then know if the checkbox was checked or
not?
I use 'em like this
input type=checkbox name=private value=myValue
and then check if $private is myValue or not.

If you really have to get some data thru, use hidden inputs.

Subject: [PHP] Checkboxe problem


I have a form with 1 checkbox and have coded it like this:

input type=checkbox name=private

When the form is submitted, $HTTP_POST_VARS[private] only exists IF
checkbox is checked.  It doesn't exist otherwise, which is causing a
problem because there are several other elements before and after.  What
happens is the value AFTER private is actually populating private if
private is empty (not checked).  I am, no doubt, missing something
small, but critical here. Can someone point out the error of my ways and
explain how to get the checkbox key/value pair into the post vars array
when the value is not checked?

TIA,
