Newbies evild Posted March 8, 2004 Newbies Posted March 8, 2004 I'm have a bit of trouble making checkboxes send back what has been checked to the FMP db. In FMP, I've set up one Field (FIELDNAME) as 'checkboxes' with a 6 item Value List (myValueList). I can read/display the correct items from the db, but I'm not sure how to get it back into the db once changes have been made. // i explode $formInfo['FIELDNAME'][0] because FX sees the contents of // that field as: items checked with a newline inbetween each item $checkboxParts = explode("n", $formInfo['FIELDNAME'][0]); // $formInfo is [data] array from FX $cbList = $allLists['myValueList']; // $allLists is [valueLists] array from FX foreach ($cbList as $cbChoice) { foreach ($checkboxParts as $checkboxSelected) { if ($cbChoice == $checkboxSelected) { $selection = " CHECKED"; break; } else { $selection = ""; } } $cboptions .= "<input id="boxes" type="checkbox" name="FIELDNAME" value="yes"" . $selection . " /> " . $cbChoice . "<br />n"; } print "$cboptions"; ?> It works if I make each checkbox it's own Field with it's own 1 item Value List. Any suggestions/solutions? D
