cant send CHECKBOXES

svenjcvd · March 30, 2011

Hey

I'm trying to send my check-boxes with PHP. Before i added them to my script everything worked fine, i tested the form and i received the answers in my inbox. when i tried to let the checkboxes work, it stopped working. Please help me out! !

I've added this to check my check-boxes:

if ($_POST['Keukens'] == 'on') {
$Keukens = "Ja";
} else {
$Keukens = "Nee";
    }
if ($_POST['Badkamers'] == 'on') {
$Badkamers = "Ja";
} else {
$Badkamers = "Nee";
    }
if ($_POST['Kasten'] == 'on') {
$Kasten = "Ja";
} else {
$Kasten = "Nee";
    }
if ($_POST['Kantoormeubels'] == 'on') {
$Kantoormeubels = "Ja";
} else {
   $Kantoormeubels = "Nee";
   }
if ($_POST['Tafels'] == 'on') {
$Tafels = "Ja";
} else {
$Tafels = "Nee";
}
if ($_POST['Overige'] == 'on') {
$Overige = "Ja";
} else {
$Overige = "Nee";
}

This is the delivery part:

else 
    { 
    $recipient = "sven@hotmail.com"; //Het email adres van de Ontvanger. 
    $subject = $_POST['sub']; //Onderwerp van de mail. 
    $header = "From: " . $_POST['uwemail'] . "\n"; 
    $mail_body = "Het Contact formulier werd op " . date("d-m-Y") . " om " . date("H:i") . " uur uitgevoerd.\n"; 
    $mail_body .= "De volgende persoon vulde het contact formulier in:\n\n"; 
    $mail_body .= "Voorletters: " . $_POST['voorletters'] . "\n"; 
$mail_body .= "Achternaam: " . $_POST['naam'] . "\n\n"; 
$mail_body .= "Adres: " . $_POST['adres'] . "\n"; 
$mail_body .= "Postcode: " . $_POST['postcode'] . "\n"; 
    $mail_body .= "Woonplaats: " . $_POST['plaats'] . "\n\n"; 
$mail_body .= "Telefoonnummer: " . $_POST['tel'] . "\n"; 
$mail_body .= "E-mailadres: " . $_POST['uwemail'] . "\n\n"; 
    $mail_body .= "Onderwerp: " . $_POST['sub']. "\n"; 
    $mail_body .= "Vraag: " . $_POST['field']. "\n\n";
$mail_body .= "Interesses:\n\n";
    $mail_body .= "Keukens: ".$Keukens."\n";
$mail_body .= "Badkamermeubels: ".$Badkamermeubels."\n";
$mail_body .= "Kasten: ".$Kasten."\n";
$mail_body .= "Kantoormeubels: ".$Kantoormeubels."\n";
$mail_body .= "Tafels: ".$Tafels."\n";
$mail_body .= "Overige: ".$Overige."\n";
$mail_body .= "\n\n -- Einde van het formulier--"; 
    mail($recipient, $subject, $mail_body, $header); 
    echo "<font color=\"#FFFFFF\"><center><b>Bedankt voor uw reactie.</b><br><br>Wij zullen zo snel mogelijk contact met u opnemen.<br>
Met vriendelijke groet,<br>Sven</b><br><br><br>"; 
    echo "Terug naar het <a class=\"main\" href='javascript:history.back(1)'>formulier</a></center></font>"; 
    }
} 
else 
{ 
?>

This the HTML part:

 <font face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">
                  <label>
                  <input type="checkbox" name="Keukens" id="keuze1" value="Keukens"/>
                  <font color="#FFFF00" size="2"> <font size="1">Keukens</font></font></label>
                  <font color="#FFFF00" size="1"><br />
                  <label>
                    <input type="checkbox" name="Badkamers" id="keuze2" value="Badkamers"/>
                    Badkamermeubels</label>
                  <br />
                  <label>
                    <input name="Kasten" type="checkbox" id="keuze3" value="Kasten" />
                    Kasten</label>
                  <br />
                  <label>
                    <input type="checkbox" name="Kantoormeubels" id="keuze4" value="Kantoormeubels"/>
                    Kantoormeubels</label>
                  <br />
                  <label>
                    <input type="checkbox" name="Tafels" id="keuze5" value="Tafels"/>
                    Tafels</label>
                     <br />
                  <label>
                    <input type="checkbox" name="Overige" id="keuze6" value="Overige"/>
                    Overige</label>
                  </font><br />
                  </font></div>

<input name="Kasten" type="checkbox" id="keuze3" value="Kasten" />

you are specifying a value, so they wont ever have the value of "on".

When exactly is the problem ?

svenjcvd · March 30, 2011

Its not starting at all from the server..

So you mean i ve to remove the value at the HTML part?

svenjcvd · March 30, 2011

ive removed the values of the HTML part...

Tested it at my wamp server:

it says:

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_ELSE in /Applications/XAMPP/xamppfiles/htdocs/contactformulier.php on line 98

betterphp · March 30, 2011

which is line 98 ?

svenjcvd · March 30, 2011

ow yeah lol sorry

line 98 is the "else" between the }{

97 }

98 else

99 {

echo "<font color=\"#FFFFFF\"><center><b>Bedankt voor uw reactie.</b><br><br>Wij zullen zo snel mogelijk contact met u 
opnemen.<br>
Met vriendelijke groet,<br> JPS</b><br><br><br>"; 
    echo "Terug naar het <a class=\"main\" href='javascript:history.back(1)'>formulier</a></center></font>"; 
    }
} 
else
{ 
?> 

<form action="<? echo $_SERVER ['PHP_SELF']; ?>" method="POST" name="contact"> 
  <table width="100%" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0"> 
    <tr> 
      <td bgcolor="#000000"><table width="608" height="540" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0">
        <tr>

betterphp · March 30, 2011

probably a unclosed } block before that line.

If you indent all of the code nicely it should just appear.

svenjcvd · March 30, 2011

damn i cant find it... >:(

each open { gets closed properly i think... i ve check all of them...

betterphp · March 30, 2011

damn i cant find it...

each open { gets closed properly i think... i ve check all of them...

Can you post the full script, in one code block so I can test it out.

svenjcvd · March 30, 2011

Thanks man

@date_default_timezone_set(@date_default_timezone_get());

The use of @ is bad, for some reason the way php handles this is very slow.

Just saying

svenjcvd · March 30, 2011

but how can you let php submit a form with no @?

betterphp · March 30, 2011

but how can you let php submit a form with no @?

perhaps look up what @ does http://www.php.net/manual/en/language.operators.errorcontrol.php

svenjcvd · March 30, 2011

damn, i didnt know it makes your form twice as slow if you use an @..

but if you're making a contact-form, there's no other solution right?

betterphp · March 30, 2011

Yeah there is, you need to design your script in a way that does not create errors. Then there are none to hide.

svenjcvd · March 30, 2011

damn you mean a script to optimize another script...can you do that?

i cant even find one (...) error in a simple form-script... lol

you found any problem in my script by the way?

betterphp · March 30, 2011

damn you mean a script to optimize another script...can you do that?

erm no, I mean this actual script should be written in a way that means there i no need to hide errors.

svenjcvd · March 30, 2011

ok...

I understand PHP a little bit, so i know for sure i'm not able to do that.. lol

do you found jet what im doing wrong in my script?

Zane · March 30, 2011

you are specifying a value, so they wont ever have the value of "on".

That was your golden answer right there. change all the checkbox values to "on"... don't remove them

Also, the value you put in the checkbox has no purpose if you're just going to change it. You're best bet is to check if the variable even exists

if(isset($_POST['Keukens'])) $Keukens = "Jaa";
else $Keukens = "Nee";

svenjcvd · March 30, 2011

can you give me an example of what you mean with check if the variables exists..

I just added the values of the checkboxes... they all got the value:"on"

I test it on the wamp server and it says:

Notice: Undefined index: Keukens in /Applications/XAMPP/xamppfiles/htdocs/contactformulier.php on line 17

Notice: Undefined index: Badkamers in /Applications/XAMPP/xamppfiles/htdocs/contactformulier.php on line 22

Notice: Undefined index: Kasten in /Applications/XAMPP/xamppfiles/htdocs/contactformulier.php on line 27

Notice: Undefined index: Kantoormeubels in /Applications/XAMPP/xamppfiles/htdocs/contactformulier.php on line 32

Notice: Undefined index: Tafels in /Applications/XAMPP/xamppfiles/htdocs/contactformulier.php on line 37

Notice: Undefined index: Overige in /Applications/XAMPP/xamppfiles/htdocs/contactformulier.php on line 42

Zane · March 30, 2011

what does your code look like now

svenjcvd · March 30, 2011

Thank you so much for your help ! ! i fixed it.. it was the variable checking problem! RESPECT ! ! ! :DPEACE ! !
