Probelm getting Multiple check box values

rpupkin77

I am running a simple test (which will be expanded) getting multiple values from a few checkboxes named services. All I can say is that it doesn't work. I've been doing similar things with JAvaScript for a few years and I've been using PHP for a year and ahalf, just never for this thing. I am quite vexxed, as I do not know why it won't work. Below is my sample code with the form and php to process it. I am working with the code theory here. Like I said, I want to make sure I have no errors in my concepts:::

............ code to get values .............

$services = $_POST['services'];

$count = count($services);

echo $count;
for($i=0; $i < $count; $i++){

echo $services[$i]. " <br />";
}

........Form with checkboxes..............

<form>

</form>

Thanks in advance.

have you tried trouble shooting this by doing

echo '<pre>' . print_r($_POST) . '</pre>';

to see what all is getting passed via your POST vars...

<form method="post"> 
<? for($i=0; $i< $count ; $i++) { ?>
<input name="services<?= $i?>[]" type="checkbox" id="services[]" value="test1"> 
test1</p> 
<p> 
<input name="services<?= $i?>[]" type="checkbox" id="services[]" value="test2"> 
<? }?>
</form> 

=========get value=========
for($ctr=0; $ctr< $count; ctr++; ) {

   if ($_POST["services" . $ctr]) {
       foreach($_POST["services" . $ctr] as $varible) {
  if ($varible=="test1") { echo "test1"; }
 else {echo "test2"; }
}
}

Sco_________

$services=$_POST['services'];

$services=implode(" ", $services);

echo $services;

In the " " of implode you can use anything, like a comma, implode(", ", $servies);

Will output like test1, test2 etc etc..

Or if you want to use your way, do somthing like this:

$services=$_POST['services'];
for($i=0; $i <= count($services); $i++){
echo $services[$i]. " <br />";
}

I think you put your ">" the wrong way.. you were trying to do for $i is greater then $services..
