Hi all, I'm new to the list and to PHP. I haven't bought a book as of yet but I've found a number of resources that are getting me through the basics.
I am collecting data from a form. I've having no problems collecting the data and printing it out. But... I have a form with check boxes with 4 options. See below. ************************************************************************ <input type=checkbox value=Investment name=investment> <input type=checkbox value=Vacation Home name=vacation> <input type=checkbox value=Retirement Home name=retirement> <input type=checkbox value=Primary Home name=primary> ************************************************************************ This form data is being sent off to a php page to get the values printed out. See below: **************************************************************************** ********************** print "Which best describes your reason for wanting to purchase land?<br>"; print "$investment<br> $investment2<br> $investment3<br> $investment4<br>"; **************************************************************************** ********************** The problem is if a check box is not checked a blank space gets printed out which I don't want. Can someone show me how to use an if then statement with the following stucture: *********************************************************************** if $investment <not eqaul to a blank> then print $investment *********************************************************************** I would use this structure for each of the variables in the checkboxes above. I'm sure this could be done with arrays in some form or another but since I'm new at this I would just as soon keep it simple for now and learn more sophisticated techniques later.
