Hi, would it be possible for one of you geniuses to give me a little hand with this script, this is my fist PHP script and am really stuck on the radio and tick box parts, if I don’t click on the tick boxes or radio buttons the script goes no where, I would like my user to have the option of NOT clicking the radio or check box if the so decide and the form to go through fine, could anyone amend the below script so I can see where I was going wrong?

Thank you for your time and god bless

$creditcard is the one which uses a tick box and $transfer is the one which uses radio button, the rest are just normal form fields

<?
$transfer = $_REQUEST['transfer'] ;
$email = $_REQUEST['email'] ;
$existingnumber = $_REQUEST['existingnumber'] ;
$pacnumber = $_REQUEST['pacnumber'] ;
$title = $_REQUEST['title'] ;
$firstname = $_REQUEST['firstname'] ;
$middleinitial = $_REQUEST['middleinitial'] ;
$lastname = $_REQUEST['lastname'] ;
$dob = $_REQUEST['dob'] ;
$currentaddress = $_REQUEST['currentaddress'] ;
$town = $_REQUEST['town'] ;
$postcode = $_REQUEST['postcode'] ;
$residentialstatus = $_REQUEST['residentialstatus'] ;
$yearsataddress = $_REQUEST['yearsataddress'] ;
$monthsataddress = $_REQUEST['monthsataddress'] ;
$previousaddress = $_REQUEST['previousaddress'] ;
$previoustowm = $_REQUEST['previoustown'] ;
$previouspostcode = $_REQUEST['previouspostcode'] ;
$hometel = $_REQUEST['hometel'] ;
$daytimetel = $_REQUEST['daytimetel'] ;
$bankaccountyears = $_REQUEST['bankaccountyears'] ;
$bankaccountmonths = $_REQUEST['bankaccountmonths'] ;
$creditcard = $_POST ['creditcard'] ;


if (!isset($_REQUEST['email'])) {
header( "Location: [a href=\"http://www.brittalk.com/brittalk/Templates/contactUs.htm"\" target=\"_blank\"]http://www.brittalk.com/brittalk/Templates...actUs.htm"[/a] );

A couple of techniques for you

If you have radio buttons, either set one of them 'checked' by default

[code]<INPUT TYPE='RADIO'  name='rb' value='1' checked> 1
<INPUT TYPE='RADIO'  name='rb' value='2'> 2
<INPUT TYPE='RADIO'  name='rb' value='3'> 3[/code]

or add a hidden field with same name and value=0 before the buttons

[code]<INPUT TYPE='HIDDEN'  name='rb' value='0'>
<INPUT TYPE='RADIO'  name='rb' value='1'> 1
<INPUT TYPE='RADIO'  name='rb' value='2'> 2
<INPUT TYPE='RADIO'  name='rb' value='3'> 3[/code]

then you still gat a value for 'rb' even if no button is selected.


With checkboxes, only checked ones are posted so if you have checkbox named creditcard

[code]$creditcard = isset($_POST['creditcard']) ? $_POST['creditcard'] : 0;[/code]

Now you have a 0 value for creditcard if it isn't checked.

Hi, thank you very much for trying to help me, I edited the code for the check box but now get this message Parse error: parse error, unexpected '?', expecting ',' or ')' in W:\Webspace\resadmin\ajsimpson\simputers.co.uk\www\brittalk\Templates\Scripts\tmobilecontract.php on line 24

here is the script:, any ideas?

<?
$transfer = $_REQUEST['transfer'] ;
$email = $_REQUEST['email'] ;
$existingnumber = $_REQUEST['existingnumber'] ;
$pacnumber = $_REQUEST['pacnumber'] ;
$title = $_REQUEST['title'] ;

$dob = $_REQUEST['dob'] ;
$currentaddress = $_REQUEST['currentaddress'] ;
$town = $_REQUEST['town'] ;
$postcode = $_REQUEST['postcode'] ;
$residentialstatus = $_REQUEST['residentialstatus'] ;
$yearsataddress = $_REQUEST['yearsataddress'] ;

$creditcard = isset($_POST['creditcard'] ? $_POST['creditcard'] : 0;

thank you and god bless
Sorry, I omitted closing ")" on the isset() function


$creditcard = isset($_POST['creditcard'][!--sizeo:3--][span style=\"font-size:12pt;line-height:100%\"][!--/sizeo--][!--coloro:#FF6666--][span style=\"color:#FF6666\"][!--/coloro--])[!--colorc--][/span][!--/colorc--][!--sizec--][/span][!--/sizec--] ? $_POST['creditcard'] : 0;
Wow, works like a charm, thank you sincerely for you help and patience with me, it is very appreciated!

Could I pick your knowledgeable brain on one more bug?

Using my current script I want to make the $transfer radio buttons a require field, when I try this with the current code, when filling out the form, if I miss the $transfer radio buttons out the browser displays an error message. Any help on this other bug?

Thank you again for your time and help!!

God bless
