I'm working on the same problem but I need to read the code, not write
it:, here are a few links and my code if you might help me in return:
http://www.experts-exchange.com/Web/Web_Languages/PHP/Q_20117420.html
my code:
mysql_db(); # connects to mysql
for($i = 0; $i sizeof($check); $i++) {
# echo $i;
# echo 'p';
# $data = $check[$i];
$sql = (SELECT * FROM kodak_user_pictures WHERE ID = '$check[$i]');
$result = mysql_query($sql);
$row = mysql_fetch_array($result);
# $row = mysql_fetch_array($db_data);
$db_ID = $row[ID];
$db_picture_name = $row[picture_name];
echo $db_ID;
echo 'p';
echo $db_picture_name;
echo 'p';
echo $ID;
echo 'p';
echo $picture_name;
echo 'p';
echo $result;
}
so many echoes because I'm trying to figure out what works and what
doesn't.

Subject: [PHP-DB] How to pass multiple checkbox values thru form??
hii
i have one form in which i print records from mysql database. while
displyaing those records i display one checkbox with each record. i want
the
user should select the checkbox corresponding to the record which s/he
wants
to delete.
i display those records after running one query. hence each time no.of
records are diff. so its difficult to hard code names for check boxes.
for
name attribute in input type=checkbox tag, i define one array. having
same
name as the key field in the table. and value for which is also set
dynamically.
FORM NAME = act_qmd_subj_frm METHOD = POST ACTION =
confirm_delete.php
while ($row = mysql_fetch_array($result))
{
..
echo tr;
//call function to display the contents of $row in table
print_entry($row,subj_id,subj_name,subj_desc);
print td valign=top align=centerinput type=checkbox
name=\subj_id[]\ value=\.$row[subj_id].\ Yes, delete entry
#.$row[subj_id]./td\n;
...
}
INPUT TYPE=submit NAME=del_but VALUE=Delete nbsp nbsp
INPUT TYPE=submit NAME=modify_but VALUE=Modify nbsp nbsp
INPUT TYPE=reset NAME=clear_but VALUE=Clear nbsp nbsp
/FORM
when i submit the form to confirm_delete.php i run one code there to
print
the array subj_id[] which is supposed to contain values of the
checkboxes
which are selected to delete or to modify. but the array subj_id[]
contains
no value at all. echo count($subj_id) gives 0.
is there any other way to pass multiple checkbox values from the form???
i got the above trick from the book MySQL/PHP Database Applications
(By,
Jay Grrenspan and Brad Bulger) in one script they have passed checkbox
value
thru array by this way, and its working fine.
can anyone PLS figure out what wrong im doing???
thnx and regds,
smita.
