PHP Checkbox Printing

[jrapin]

I'm working on a fillable form that uses text and checkboxes to submit info.
The text boxes work, but I can't seem to get the checkboxes to print.

What makes it difficult for me is: I want the user to have the option of selecting from various boxes and simply mark the one(s) they choose. So I need to indicate "if checked print?"

Please help.

Are you giving the checkboxes "values"?

Also ONLY checboxes that are checked will be passed in the POST variables. So, checkboxes that are not checked are not sent.

I would like to, but I'm confused as to contrasting them with the requred text fields.
The items in question are referred to as fruits in my document. Could someone check out the attached file and determine what changes are necessary to allow this form still require, print and send form to e-mail while sending the fruits ONLY if checked?

To test if a checkbox was checked, use:
[code]<?php

if(isset($_POST['checkbox_name_here']))
echo "Checked";

?>[/code]

Orio.

Thanks Orio, check out the document attached to my initial message - to see where I have placed the code you have provided me on this glorious day!
Do I still have to assign each box a value?

Yes that's correct.

If you want to shorten it, use:

[code]<?php

$checkboxes = array("apples", "oranges", "grapes", "pears"); //you can add remove values

foreach ($checkboxes as $checkbox)
{
if(isset($_POST[$checkbox]))
  echo $checkbox." is checked";
}

?>[/code]
