HI Guys,

I’m a newbie here and just want to ask how to get the 555.5555 on the url below so i can call it for other functions:

http://localhost/mktg/submit.php?%3Fid%3D555.5555=on

here is my code. Appreciate your help. Thank you.

$sqlcall="select * from test order by test_name asc";
$sqlview=mysql_query($sqlcall);
		while ($row = mysql_fetch_array($sqlview))
		{
		echo "<form action='submit.php' method='GET'>";
		echo "<tr><td><input type='checkbox' name=?id=". $row['test_id'] ."></td>";
		echo "<td>" . $row['test_id'] . "</td>";
		echo "<td>" . $row['test_name'] . "</td>";
		echo "<td>" . $row['test_price'] . "</td></tr>";
		}

		echo "<input type='submit'>";

Checkbox requires name and value:

echo '<tr><td><input type="checkbox" name="id" value="'. $row['test_id'] .'"></td>';

How to check checkbox status:

$is_selected = isset($_GET['id']);

The thing to remember with both checkboxes and radio buttons is that if the checkbox ins “unchecked” or a radio button hasn’t had an option selected, nothing will be sent to the web server for that field.

btw @rc1127 you need to be migrating away from the old mysql_* extension as it’s deprecated as of version 5.5 of PHP and is being removed from the next version of PHP (7)
