Carry check box values to next page without submitting the form.

Hi Everyone,

 

I am having a problem here.

 

I am trying to send mail to a list of selected people. So I have used check-boxes for multiple select.

The list comes from the database. I have used pagination with a limit of 10 records in a page.

Now I select say 3 records in page 1 , go to the next page and select 2 from there. I want the mail to be sent to all 5 people when I click submit. But the mail is sent only to the values selected on the page in which I click 'send' , which is the submit button.

 

Is there any way to retain the selected checkbox values ?

 

Thanks in advance,

 

Anshu

Any ideas people?

One way would be to store them in a session array. Add another checkbox to the forms to flag "Selection complete", or even a second submit button. When that is checked, process all the selection on submission.

You can store all the selected value in a Session variable and pass this variable to next page and other wise you can use another approach write an ajax function and save the ID's in a temporary table on checkbox onclick., so when you click submit button fetch all the ids from temp table and send mail once mail is send truncate table.
