Checking radio buttons


Leggo

Recommended Posts

I have been at this for far too long and really need some help. I am just trying to check if a radio button has been set or not when someone hits submit. My validation looks something like this:

 

function protect($string){

$string = trim(strip_tags(addslashes($string)));

return $string;

}

 

 

if(isset($_POST['submit'])){

 

//protect and then add the posted data to variables

$username = protect($_POST['username']);

$password = protect($_POST['password']);

$passconf = protect($_POST['passconf']);

$email = protect($_POST['email']);

$fname = protect($_POST['fname']);

$lname = protect($_POST['lname']);

$address = protect($_POST['address']);

$phone = protect($_POST['phone']);

$gender = $_POST['gender'];

 

if(!$username || !$password || !$passconf || !$email || !$fname || !$lname || !$address || !$phone || !isset($gender)){

 

echo "<p>Please enter all required fields</p>";

 

 

}else{

 

 

 

 

 

and my form for the radio button is like this...

 

 

<form method="post" action="<?php echo $_SERVER['PHP_SELF']; ?>">

           

            <h1>General</h1>

<p>

<label for="username">Username: </label>

<input type="text" name="username" value="<?=$_POST['username'] ?>" />

</p>

 

                        <p>

                        <label for="password">Password: </label>

<input type="password" name="password" value="<?=$_POST['password'] ?>" />

</p>

 

                        <p>

                        <label for="passconf">Confirm Password: </label>

<input type="password" name="passconf" value="<?=$_POST['passconf'] ?>" />

</p>

 

                        <p>

                        <label for="email">Email: </label>

<input type="text" name="email" value="<?=$_POST['email'] ?>" size="25"/>

</p>

                       

                        <p>

                        <label for="fname">First Name: </label>

<input type="text" name="fname" value="<?=$_POST['fname'] ?>" size="25"/>

</p>

                       

                        <p>

                        <label for="lname">Last Name: </label>

<input type="text" name="lname" value="<?=$_POST['lname'] ?>" size="25"/>

</p>

                       

                        <p>

                        <label for="address">Home Address: </label>

<input type="text" name="address" value="<?=$_POST['address'] ?>" />

</p>

                       

                        <p>

                        <label for="phone">Primary Phone Number: </label>

<input type="text" name="phone" value="<?=$_POST['phone'] ?>" size="10" />

</p>

                       

                        <p>

                        <label for="genders">Gender: </label>

<input type="radio" name"gender" value="male" /> Male

                        <input type="radio" name"gender" value="female" /> Female

</p>
