Get value from checkbox group

[chrisk_47]

I have the following code for looping through a checkbox array:

 

if (!empty($_POST['Breakfast']))

  {

echo "Breakfast";

foreach ($_POST['Breakfast'] as $checkbox)

{

echo $checkbox;

}

  }

 

//example output

Breakfast

Bagels

Doughnuts

Fruit

 

The above works great for printing out the selected choices to the page, but how can I get the selected choices into a string variable for use later in my script (for instance I want to include it in a confirmation email)?

You could just implode() the array - perhaps using a comma as the 'glue':

 

<?php
if (!empty($_POST['Breakfast']))
  {
$breakfast = implode(',',$_POST['Breakfast']);
echo 'Breakfast requirements: '.$breakfast
  }
?>

Excellent Ben, just what I was looking for.

 

Thank you,
