mulitple values for one radio button

[delstrange]

I have this bit of code for my radio buttons.

if($_POST['package']=="basic-monthly"){$chk1="checked"; $amount="7.95"; $cycle="m1";}

Then after everything in the form is entered in. I want it to display what package they selected and the price by doing this:

Package: <?=$package?>
Amount: <?=$amount?>

It will display the package name basic-monthly because the value assigned to the radio button is "basic-monthly" but won't display the amount. How can I add a value to the $amount and have it display? By doing $amount ="7.95"; is not working.

Hope someone can help.

The code you posted should work. Only small mistake there, when you are asigning numbers into variables, the numbers are not enclosed into "" so better is $amount=7.65;

Could you post whole script to see, where is the mistake ?

I have included the file in a zip file for you to take a look at. There are still a couple of other errors that I'm getting but it will allow you to finish to the final step to display all information back to you.

Although for some reason it will not display the amount or the billing state and billing country if you check the check box to use the contact information for the billing info.

Thanks.

Your mistake is now easily visible. It is that server process your bit of code only after the form1 is submited or $form is empty. And the information is not stored into session and isn't transfered to next pages as an hidden input, like the other variables are.

So you have several posibilities:

1) To every place where you have this

<input type="hidden" name="package" value="<?=$package?>"> 

add another line

<input type="hidden" name="amount" value="<?=$amount?>"> 

2) Store the values into the session

or

3) process the mentioned bit of code before each script

You have carefully take a look when the " or ' should be used when you are asigning values to variables and when they should be used in HTML statements. There are more mistakes in your script.

okay, I added the other hidden field

<input type="hidden" name="amount" value="<?=$amount?>">

onto each step where I have

<input type="hidden" name="package" value="<?=$package?>">

It still isn't showing up on the final page with everything else. Any other ideas?

Also, what other mistakes do I have that you saw?

Thanks.

Sorry it was my mistake ... it can't work because the value is not set up.

It is quite messy and complicated script.

The solution probably is to move the bit of code before the first if statement, so it should look like:

if (!empty($error)) {//if there is any error message, print it to the screen
echo "<table width=550 align=\"center\" div align=\"center\"><br /><font color=#FFFFFF><b>The following problems occurred:</b><br /></font><font color=#FFCC33 size=1>\n"; 
print ("$error"); 
}

if($_POST['package']=="basic-monthly"){$chk1="checked"; $amount=7.95; $cycle=m1;} 
         elseif($_POST['package']=="basic-semi"){$chk2="checked"; $amount=44.95; $cycle=m6;}
		 elseif($_POST['package']=="basic-annually"){$chk3="checked"; $amount=89.95; $cycle=y1;}
		 elseif($_POST['package']=="standard-monthly"){$chk4="checked"; $amount=9.95; $cycle=m1;}
		 elseif($_POST['package']=="standard-semi"){$chk5="checked"; $amount=57.95; $cycle=m6;}
		 elseif($_POST['package']=="standard-annually"){$chk6="checked"; $amount=110.95; $cycle=y1;}
		 elseif($_POST['package']=="plus-monthly"){$chk7="checked"; $amount=12.95; $cycle=m1;}
		 elseif($_POST['package']=="plus-semi"){$chk8="checked"; $amount=74.95; $cycle=m6;}
		 elseif($_POST['package']=="plus-annually"){$chk9="checked"; $amount=144.95; $cycle=y1;} 


if(empty($form) or $form=="form1"){

And still leave there the hidden statements from post before ...
and here you can see other mistakes

$cycle=m6 or $cycle=y1 ... every time you assign a string, it has to be enclose in " like $cycle="y1"
