Updating Mysql From CheckBoxes

Recommended Posts

I want it so that the boxes which are ticked will change a cell in there row to 'Yes'.

Here is my code so far but i don't think i'm doing it right

[code]
if($action == changebankallow){

echo "<br><br>Select Members:<br>";

echo "<form method='post' action=clan.php?action=allowmembers>";

            $members1 = mysql_query("select * from `players` where `clan_name` = '$clan[name]'order by `display_name` asc");
                while($member = mysql_fetch_array($members1)) {


if ($member[clan_bank] == Yes){
  $checked="checked";
}else{
  $checked="";
}

echo "<input type='checkbox' name='MEMBER_ARRAY[]' value='$member[id]' $checked> $member[display_name] ($member[clan_bank])<br>";
}
echo "<input type=submit value=Update>";

echo "</form>";

if($action == allowmembers){
if ($MEMBER_ARRAY)
{
$MEMBER = implode($MEMBER_ARRAY, ",");
$result = mysql_query ("UPDATE players SET clan_bank =Yes where id='$MEMBER'");
echo "Updated Successful";
if(!$result)
{
echo "<B>UPDATE unsuccessful:</b> ", mysql_error();
exit;
}
}
[/code]

Example
mysql_query ("UPDATE players SET clan_bank =Yes where id='box(es) that was ticked'");

So i'd want more than one update if you get what i meen.

you are trying to create your array before the page is submitted. You have to submit the page then get the values into an array then run your query. This is how I have always done it.

[code]if($action == changebankallow){
echo "<br><br>Select Members:<br>";
echo "<form method='post' action=clan.php?action=allowmembers>";
// Start count for values
$i = 1;
            $members1 = mysql_query("select * from `players` where `clan_name` = '$clan[name]'order by `display_name` asc");
                while($member = mysql_fetch_array($members1)) {
if ($member[clan_bank] == Yes){
  $checked="checked";
}else{
  $checked="";
}

echo "<input type='checkbox' name='mem".$i."' value='$member[id]' $checked> $member[display_name] ($member[clan_bank])<br>";
$i++;
}
echo "<input type=submit value=Update>";

echo "</form>";

if($action == allowmembers){
$access = '';
$MEMBER = array();
$initials = 'mem';
foreach ($_POST as $key => $value) {
  $access .= "$key=$value&";
  if (substr($key, 0, 3) == $initials) {
    $MEMBER[]= ''.$value.'';
}
}
$result = mysql_query ("UPDATE players SET clan_bank =Yes where id IN ($MEMBER);
echo "Updated Successful";
if(!$result)
{
echo "<B>UPDATE unsuccessful:</b> ", mysql_error();
exit;
}
}[/code]

I have not tested all of your code so let me know if there is a problem
