Problems with pizza order script

[chrisdee]

Hello. Im trying to make a page wich takes user input
and echo the result back to the screen, but it only echo
one of the possible topping choices : cheese, ham, pinapple and
bacon. I wonder what Im doing wrong ?

Here is the script :

<?php 

# Defines global variables 
$ingrediens = $_POST['ingrediens']; 
$ingrediens = array('Cheese','Ham','Pinapple','Bacon'); 
$part = $_POST['part']; 

if (empty($_POST)) { 
 echo "What do you want on your pizza ?<br><br>"; 
 echo "<form method='post' action='" . $_SERVER[PHP_SELF] . "'>"; 
  foreach($ingrediens as $part) { 
   echo "<input type='checkbox' name='part' value='$part'>$part<br>"; 
  } 
  echo "<br><input type='submit' name='add' value='Send_Order'>"; 
  echo "</form>"; 
} 
else { 
 echo "You have ordered pizza with :<br>"; 
 echo "<font color=green>$part</font><br>"; 
 echo "<a class='cd' href='" . $_SERVER[PHP_SELF] . "'>Order new pizza</a>"; 
} 

?>

In these two lines of code your overwriting the first variable with the second, so whatever has been input is discarded

$ingrediens = $_POST['ingrediens']; 
$ingrediens = array('Cheese','Ham','Pinapple','Bacon');

OK. So what would be the correct way to do it ?

Small change, checkboxex go into an array, so to fix that script and get what you want do this;

<?php

# Defines global variables
$ingrediens = $_POST['ingrediens'];
$ingrediens = array('Cheese','Ham','Pinapple','Bacon');
$part = $_POST['part'];

if (empty($_POST)) {
echo "What do you want on your pizza ?<br><br>";
echo "<form method='post' action='" . $_SERVER[PHP_SELF] . "'>";
  foreach($ingrediens as $part) {
   echo "<input type='checkbox' name='part[]' value = '$part'>$part<br>";
  }
  echo "<br><input type='submit' name='add' value='Send_Order'>";
  echo "</form>";
}
else {
echo "You have ordered pizza with :<br>";
$i=0;
while ($i < count($part))
{
echo "<font color=green>$part[$i]</font><br>";
$i++;

}
echo "<a class='cd' href='" . $_SERVER[PHP_SELF] . "'>Order new pizza</a>";
}

?>
