Basic checkbox question

[insanityseanboy]

I'm sure I'm making some stupid little mistake here...

 

This is in the form in cc.php...

<form action="sc.php" method="post">
...
<input type="checkbox" value="true" name="Acute Sight" />
...
<input type="submit" value="Submit" />
</form>

 

This is in sc.php

<?php
if (isset($_POST["Acute Sight"]))  
     echo "<B> Acute Sight </B><BR />"; 
?>

 

So the plan is to have a checkbox that will print a line in sc.php but at the moment it's printing nothing.

 

Can anyone point me in the right direction?

$acute_sight=$_POST['acute_sight'];
if (isset($_POST["acute_sight"]))  
     echo "<B> $acute_sight </B><BR />"; 

 

Note the underscore, use it instead of a space. Change your input widget to match.

You sir, are a legend.

 

Interestingly, I didn't need to change the spaces to underscores in cc.php, so they must be converted - is that a property of POST?

[teamatomic]

Not that I know of. But then I'm old school and have never used spaces in anything but a sentence.
