Print if Checkbox is Checked

creativeink

I am adding to my form like this:

Basically I want my query to check if the checkbox is checked and:

If 'vlink' is 0 print: nothing

If 'vlink' is 1 print:

<ul class="gallery clearfix"><li><a href="<?php echo $row_Archives['gallery']; ?>?iframe=true&width=80%&height=80%" rel="prettyPhoto"><img src="images/bttm-view.jpg" width="140" height="27" border="0" /></a></li></ul>

Thank you so much for your help

I researched on the web and found this but I can't seem to implement it.

<?php
$checkbox = ($_GET['vlink'] == 1); {
print "" ?>

Several things.

You use $POST form or $GET form ???

This is one GET form

<form>
input
</form>

This is one POST form

<form method="POST">
input
</form>

You use 2 input fields with same name="vlink". Don't do that.

This example assumes you are using POST form

<form method="POST" action="process.php">
Check box for view:
<input name="vlink" type="checkbox" id="vlink" value="1" /><br />
<input name="submit" type="submit" value="Submit" />
</form>

process.php

<?php

if($_POST['vlink'] == '1'){
?>
<ul class="gallery clearfix"><li><a href="<?php echo $row_Archives['gallery']; ?>?iframe=true&amp;width=80%&amp;height=80%"
 rel="prettyPhoto"><img src="images/bttm-view.jpg" width="140" height="27" border="0" /></a></li></ul>
<?php
}else{
echo 'nothing';
}

Thanks for the reply.

I am using:

<form action="<?php echo $_SERVER['PHP_SELF']; ?>" method="post">
<input name="vlink" type="checkbox" id="vlink" value="1" />

However it still isn't displaying properly.

Basically if the checkbox is checked I want a graphic displayed, and if it isn't checked them its blank.

Did you get rid of any other HTML entities that also have a name of "vlink" ?

Also, show us the code you're using to check the value and display the graphic.

Heres my code:

<?php require_once('Connections/connect.php'); ?>

<?php
mysql_select_db($database_Sean, $Sean);
$query_Archives = "SELECT * FROM galleries WHERE active='1' ORDER BY id DESC"; 
$Archives = mysql_query($query_Archives, $Sean) or die(mysql_error());
$row_Archives = mysql_fetch_assoc($Archives);
$totalRows_Archives = mysql_num_rows($Archives);
?>


<?php if ($totalRows_Archives > 0) { // Show if recordset not empty ?>
<?php do { ?>
<table width="100%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" border="0" align="center" class="text">
<tr>
  <td>
	<table width="99%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" border="0" class="table" align="center">
	<tr background="images/backbar.jpg" valign="bottom"><td align="center" class="title_mylisting" style="line-height:1.9em;"><?php echo substr(($row_Archives['title']), 0, 80); ?></td></tr>
	<tr><td align="center"><br /><ul class="gallery clearfix">
<?php
$gallery_id = $row_Archives['id'];
$photoquery = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM pictures WHERE gallery_id = '$gallery_id' ");
$photos = mysql_num_rows($photoquery);

for($i = 0; $i<$photos; $i++) {
$row = mysql_fetch_array($photoquery);
if(is_int($i/1)) {
print "<li><a href=\"".$row['picture']."\" rel=\"prettyPhoto\" title=\"".$row['caption']."\"><img src=\"".$row['picture']."\" border=\"0\" height=\"70\" /></a></li>&nbsp;";
}else{
print "<li><a href=\"".$row['picture']."\" rel=\"prettyPhoto\" title=\"".$row['caption']."\"><img src=\"".$row['picture']."\" border=\"0\" height=\"70\" /></a></li>&nbsp;";
}
}
?></ul>

Only the bolded text is what I need altered the rest works perfect.

Basically I want an image ( images/bttm-view.jpg ) to be displayed if my vlink is = 1[/B]

Well the code itself seems to look fine... if you view the source code of the page, do you see the HTML code or the word 'nothing' ? If it's the latter of the two, try outputting $POST['vlink'] (or use [man]print_r/man to display all of $POST) and show us what values you're getting.
