sloth456 Posted December 17, 2010 Share Posted December 17, 2010 Kind of difficult to visualize the output and get an idea of what you're trying to achieve, can you post a URL to the form and rephrase your question.

Ryflex Posted December 17, 2010 Author Share Posted December 17, 2010 Hi sloth456, This is what the Form page shows You can only train 1 type of infantry at a time. gunner [textbox] marine [textbox] sniper [textbox] special ops [textbox] Train!!! The EXEC page only puts the amounts out of the textbox into the database. In the FORM page I need something that functions like a radio button idea so only one thing can be "trained" at a time.

Rifts Posted December 17, 2010 Share Posted December 17, 2010 just have a different submit button of each? Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/222001-form-with-radio-and-post/#findComment-1148779 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pikachu2000 Posted December 17, 2010 Share Posted December 17, 2010 You could use a radio button group to indicate which type of unit is to be trained, and have only one text field, or keep the 4 text fields and while you validate the form, check that only one of them has a value.

Ryflex Posted December 18, 2010 Author Share Posted December 18, 2010 Hi all, I changed the form with radio buttons but when I get the $_POST[train] it only says: on. <form id="create" name="create" method="POST" action="infantry_exec.php"> <table> <tr> <td><b><?php echo $n[0]; ?></b></td> <td><b><input name="train" type="radio" value-"<?php echo $n[0]; ?>" /></b></td> <td rowspan="4"> How many troops do you want to train?<BR><input name="amount" maxlength="10" <?php echo $ro; ?> id="amount"></td> </tr> <tr> <td><b><?php echo $n[1]; ?></b></td> <td><b><input name="train" type="radio" value="<?php echo $n[1]; ?>" /></b></td> </tr> <tr> <td><b><?php echo $n[2]; ?></b></td> <td><b><input name="train" type="radio" value="<?php echo $n[2]; ?>" /></b></td> </tr> <tr> <td><b><?php echo $n[3]; ?></b></td> <td><b><input name="train" type="radio" value="<?php echo $n[3]; ?>" /></b></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2"><center><input type="submit" name="Submit" value="Train!!!" /></center></td> </tr> </table> </form> //convert POST to normal variable $amount = $_POST[amount]; $type = $_POST[train]; echo "$amount <BR> $type"; Thnx Ryflex Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/222001-form-with-radio-and-post/#findComment-1148975 Share on other sites More sharing options...
