PHP Table POST

[smidgen11]

Hi,

 

 

I have a sql query at the top that runs and echos the result to the page. Each row in the table has a radio but to select and then a submit button at the bottom of the table which should run the form's action which is another php script. Here is what I have for the table portion:

 

 

^{<form name="form1" method="post" action="undoentering.php">}

^<?php

^{echo "<table>";}

^{echo "<thead>";}

^{echo "<tr>";}

^{echo "<td>Select</td>";}

^{echo "<td>Location</td>";}

^{echo "<td>First Name</td>";}

^{echo "<td>Last Name</td>";}

^{echo "<td>User Name</td>";}

^{echo "<td>Extension</td>";}

^{echo "<td>Mac</td>";}

^{echo "<td>Type</td>";}

^{echo "</tr>";}

^{echo "</thead>";}

^?>

^<?php

^{while($rows=mysql_fetch_array($result)){}

^?>

^<?php

^{echo "<tr>";}

^?>

^{<td><input name="Selected" type="radio" id="radio[]" value="<? echo $rows['Mac']; ?>"></td>}

 

^<?php

^{echo "<td>";}

^{echo $rows['Location'];}

^{echo "</td>";}

^{echo "<td>";}

^{echo $rows['FirstName'];}

^{echo "</td>";}

^{echo "<td>";}

^{echo $rows['LastName'];}

^{echo "</td>";}

^{echo "<td>";}

^{echo $rows['UserName'];}

^{echo "</td>";}

^{echo "<td>";}

^{echo $rows['Extension'];}

^{echo "</td>";}

^{echo "<td>";}

^{echo $rows['Mac'];}

^{echo "</td>";}

^{echo "<td>";}

^{echo $rows['Type'];}

^{echo "</td></tr>";}

^?>

^<?php

^}

^?>

^{<td colspan="8" align="center"><input name="delete" type="submit" id="delete" value="Undo"></td>}

 

 

 

 

 

My issue is that nothing POSTs to the next page. When doing it like this the record show empty boxes yet the correct number of empty rows is output:

 

 

^<table>

^{<form name="form1" method="post" action="undoexiting.php">}

^<thead>

^<tr>

^{<td>Select</td>}

^{<td>Location</td>}

^{<td>First Name</td>}

^{<td>Last Name</td>}

^{<td>User Name</td>}

^{<td>Extension</td>}

^<td>Mac</td>

^{<td>Type</td>}

^</tr>

^</thead>

^<?php

^{while($rows=mysql_fetch_array($result)){}

^?>

^<tr>

^{<td><input name="Selected" type="radio" id="radio[]" value="<? echo $rows['Mac']; ?>"></td>}

^{<td><? echo $rows['Location']; ?></td>}

^{<td><? echo $rows['FirstName']; ?></td>}

^{<td><? echo $rows['LastName']; ?></td>}

^{<td><? echo $rows['UserName']; ?></td>}

^{<td><? echo $rows['Extension']; ?></td>}

^{<td><? echo $rows['Mac']; ?></td>}

^{<td><? echo $rows['Type']; ?></td>}

^</tr>

^<?php

^}

^?>

 

^<tr>

^{<td colspan="8" align="center"><input name="Undo" type="submit" id="undo" value="Undo"></td>}

^</tr>

^</html>

 

 

Can anyone lend some knowledge on what I may be doing wrong on the first script. And yes, I did and still am using google.

 

Thanks

question?

What are you trying to do? Can you post a more descriptive explanation.

 

Also when posting code wrap it within

tags.

Hopefully this will make sense. So a number of records are queried and output into the table:

 
<?php
echo "<td>";
echo $rows['Location'];
echo "</td>";
echo "<td>";
echo $rows['FirstName'];
echo "</td>";
echo "<td>";
echo $rows['LastName'];
echo "</td>";
echo "<td>";
echo $rows['UserName'];
echo "</td>";
echo "<td>";
echo $rows['Extension'];
echo "</td>";
echo "<td>";
echo $rows['Mac'];
echo "</td>";
echo "<td>";
echo $rows['Type'];
echo "</td></tr>";
?>

 

From this table, each record has a radio button next to hit. When the radio button selects a row the Undo (submit button) is clicked and the "Mac" field of the selected record should post so that my next php file (undoentering.php) will be able to echo the value.

 

Undoentering.php:

 

$del_id = ( $_POST['Selected'] );
echo $del_id;

just to add a more descriptive answer to what my issue is. When I try to echo $del_id on undoentering.php I get:

<? echo $rows['Mac']; ?>

 

Which is the text written in my radio button's value.

finally...SOLVED.

 

all i had to do was add "php" to this line.

 

BEFORE

 

<td><input name="Selected" type="radio" id="radio[]" value="<? echo $rows['Mac']; ?>"></td>

 

AFTER

 

<td><input name="Selected" type="radio" id="radio[]" value="<?php echo $rows['Mac']; ?>"></td>

 

 

thanks guys
