damion Posted June 5, 2010 Share Posted June 5, 2010 Hi, I hope someone can help me with this. I need to add a checkbox that will be a 'check off all' applied to other checkboxes. Below is my code, and the checkboxes that I want to have automatically checked off are the 'extensions' checkboxes that you will see at the bottom of the script. $extStr=""; $new_extensions = getExtensions(); $cc=1; for($i=0;$i<count($new_extensions);$i++){ $extStr .= "<input type=\"checkbox\" name=\"extensions[]\" value=\"".$new_extensions[$i]."\" "; if(is_array($extensions)){ if(in_array($extensions,$new_extensions[$i])){ $extStr .= " checked "; } } else if($extensions==$new_extensions[$i]){ $extStr .= " checked "; } $extStr .= "/>.".$new_extensions[$i]; $cc++; if($cc==9){ $extStr.="<br />";$cc=1; } } $upload_dirs=""; $query="SELECT * FROM folders ORDER BY name ASC"; $result=mysql_query($query) or die("error getting folders from database"); while($rr=mysql_fetch_assoc($result)){ $upload_dirs .= "<option value='".$rr["name"]."'>".$rr["name"]."</option>"; } //new in version 1.4, user status $user_stat=""; $user_stat .= "<option value='2' ".($active=="2"?"selected":"").">Not Active</option>"; $user_stat .= "<option value='1' ".($active=="1"?"selected":"").">Active</option>"; ?> <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd"> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:lang="en" lang="en"> <head> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8"/> <title>Welcome <?php echo $_SESSION["username"]?>!</title> <link rel="stylesheet" href="css/filemanager.css" type="text/css" /> </head> <body> <div id="content"> <h1>File Management</h1> <?php require("includes/menu.php");?> <div class="content_block"> <h2>Add New User</h2> <strong><?php echo $msg; ?></strong> <form action="users.php" enctype="multipart/form-data" method="post" name="ff1"> <table width="784" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0"> <tr> <td width="152" height="25" align="right">Username:</td> <td width="632" height="23"> <input type="text" name="username" id="username" value="<?php echo $username?>" /> </td> </tr> <tr> <td height="25" align="right">Status:</td> <td height="23"> <select name="active" id="active"> <option value="">Please Select</option> <?php echo $user_stat; ?> </select> </td> </tr> <tr> <td height="25" align="right">Password:</td> <td height="23"><input type="text" name="password" id="password" /></td> </tr> <tr> <td height="25" align="right">Email:</td> <td height="23"><input type="text" name="email" id="email" value="<?php echo $email?>" /></td> </tr> <tr> <td height="25" align="right" valign="top">Access Level:</td> <td height="23"> <input type="checkbox" name="accesslevel2[]" value="g" <?php if(is_array($accesslevel12) && in_array($accesslevel2,"g")){ echo "checked"; }?> /> Can upload files<br /> <input type="checkbox" name="accesslevel2[]" value="i" <?php if(is_array($accesslevel12) && in_array($accesslevel2,"i")){ echo "checked"; }?> /> Can view everyones files<br /> <input type="checkbox" name="accesslevel2[]" value="h" <?php if(is_array($accesslevel12) && in_array($accesslevel2,"h")){ echo "checked"; }?> /> Can delete his/her files<br /> <input type="checkbox" name="accesslevel2[]" value="j" <?php if(is_array($accesslevel12) && in_array($accesslevel2,"j")){ echo "checked"; }?> /> Can delete any file.<br /> <input type="checkbox" name="accesslevel2[]" value="k" <?php if(is_array($accesslevel12) && in_array($accesslevel2,"k")){ echo "checked"; }?> /> Can edit his files.<br /> <input type="checkbox" name="accesslevel2[]" value="l" <?php if(is_array($accesslevel12) && in_array($accesslevel2,"l")){ echo "checked"; }?> /> Can edit all files.<br /> <input type="checkbox" name="accesslevel2[]" value="m" <?php if(is_array($accesslevel12) && in_array($accesslevel2,"m")){ echo "checked"; }?> /> Can share any files.<br /> </td> </tr> <tr> <td height="25" align="right" valign="top">Extensions:</td> <td height="23"> <?php echo $extStr;?></td> </tr> <tr> Thank you to anyone who can help me on this.

SharkBait Posted June 5, 2010 Share Posted June 5, 2010 Typically when dealing with checkboxes, if you want 1 checkbox to allow all checkboxes checked it would be done with javascript. If you want PHP to check off all checkboxes within a loop you would add checked="checked" to the html code of the checkbox themselves.

damion Posted June 5, 2010 Author Share Posted June 5, 2010 Oh, okay. Can I get an example of how it would be written for this? I have no idea where to add that. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dabaR Posted June 5, 2010 Share Posted June 5, 2010 You should include jQuery http://jquery.com/ and give all the checkboxes you want auto-checked a class="auto-check", and the "check all" checkbox an onclick="$('.auto-check').each(function(index) { this.attr('checked','checked');});" event. Some references: http://www.aliaspooryorik.com/blog/index.cfm/e/posts.details/post/toggle-multiple-checkboxes-with-jquery-7 , http://api.jquery.com/each/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
