There are a few checkboxes on page 1. It is one array of records out of the db. The checkbox's value is the id field of the db. That value when the checkbox is clicked has to go across to page 2 where there is a button that when clicked changes a column in the table simply from a "No" to a "Yes" based on that id value. Was that a little more clear?

Here is my problem. Basically the process is this: When a user clicks on a checkbox on page 1 that holds the array of id numbers, a separate browser window opens up (page 2)prompting them to click a button. When that button is clicked I want to update mySQL table based on the id number that was checked from that checkbox on page one. Did that make sense? So really I am not sure how to get that id checkbox value and put it into a variable so I can use it on page 2. Can anyone please help!!!! Thanks tjg

Perhaps this is an HTML question but since my question relates to MySQL I am thinking it is more PHP. I really need help figuring out how change the status of a checkbox from not checked to checked based on its value in the database. In the database the checkbox column says "YES" (that it has been checked) When the page is visited at a later date, I need to pull that value from the database and have that checkbox now CHECKED. Did this make sense? Can anyone help? thanks
