How to pass link variable to order form to pre-select multiple radio select buttons?

snet2069

Hello All,
I'm not really sure how to explain this as I am not a php coder at all. I am trying to write a basic php formmail script to use for basic online orders.

What would happen is that a buy button would be placed next to a product and the link would be, http://site.com/buy.php?prod=1

Then on the order form. There would be 3 radio buttons that would allow the visitor to choose one of the 3 options. If the link above was used, http://site.com/buy.php?prod=1, It would select the first radio button, ?prod=2 would pre-select the second and so on.

Can someone give me an example of the code that needs to go on the form for this?

Thanks,
Chris

Nevermind, I was able to figure this out..

test.php?prod=1 Selects Product 1
test.php?prod=2 Selects Product 2 and so on...

The test.php page

<?
if ($prod == "1") {
$prod1_checked = "CHECKED";
} else {
$prod1 = "";
}
if ($prod == "2") {
$prod2_checked = "CHECKED";
} else {
$prod2 = "";
}

echo <<<EOS

<body bgcolor="white" text="black" link="blue" vlink="purple" alink="red">
<p>
<font face="Verdana" size="2"><b>
<INPUT TYPE=radio NAME="prod" VALUE="1" $prod1_checked >Product 1<br>
<INPUT TYPE=radio NAME="prod" VALUE="2" $prod2_checked >Product 2<br><p>

</body>
