jazzbach Posted February 9, 2008 Share Posted February 9, 2008 Hi. I'm trying to make a little multiple answer exam generator and what I'd like to do is to retrieve the "caption" of a radio button from a form within an html file with PHP. I've managed to retrieve its value (0, 1, etc...) but, how can I "save" the answer itself (the text the radio button has) ? In addition to the question above, how can I retrieve the text within a <p></p> tag ?? (that is the question text and I need to retrieve it as well) ?? Thanks in advance !!!

kenrbnsn Posted February 9, 2008 Share Posted February 9, 2008 The way you're describing it, this can't be done with PHP. You're best bet, would be to put some hidden fields into your form which you could then get in the php script.

kenrbnsn Posted February 9, 2008 Share Posted February 9, 2008 If you want to write good PHP scripts, you really need to learn how to use HTML. Hidden fields are defined in your form <input name="fieldname" type="hidden" value="value you want to see in your script"> Ken Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/90215-how-to-retrieve-the-caption-of-a-radio-button/#findComment-462599 Share on other sites More sharing options...
