hi

 

I have a form with 3 check boxes

 

          chkbox 1    chkbox 2    chkbox 3

id        home 1      home2        home3

 

user can check lets say box 1

 

i know how to automaticaly sent an email to the user.

 

my question is... Can I sent him the checkbox id, in this case "home1", also?

[timmah1]

Just echo out the checkbox in the email

$_POST['chkbox1'];

[Pavlos1316]

yes but I don't now which one the user will choose...

 

how do I figure that out?

 

Should I echo all checkboxes but still user will see only those who checked?

 

Plus... I echo the checkbox's id, name or value or it doesn't matter?

You can make a condition to check for each one or you can make an array.  The id is not necessary for php.  The name is what you would echo, and it will echo the value.

ok..

 

cause I am not good at this... basically I'm new.. can you show me how??

try bellow

<input type="checkbox" name="checkbox[]" value="<?php echo $checkbox1['id']?>" >
<input type="checkbox" name="checkbox[]" value="<?php echo $checkbox2['id']?>" >
<input type="checkbox" name="checkbox[]" value="<?php echo $checkbox3['id']?>"> 

 

Now you just can get checked checkbox values that means the id suppose 'home1' in the $_POST['checkbox'] array. like bellow:

if 1st checkbox is selected then after submitting the value of $_POST['chekbox'] will be

array(

    0 => 'home1'

)

 

hope this will help u.

so..

 

1st i change chkbox value - ok

 

2nd as i see it i write an array for each one of them - ? (I do it inside the email or anywhere?)

 

3rd what if the user checks 2 boxes? how do i determine that? or when i write the arrays what ever is checked it will be displayed? what 0 stants for? it means i continue 1=> home2 etc?
