Hi guys, like every other problem I have this one is SURE to be
painfully simple to fix and make me look g0ofy again.
I have an edit user form with checkboxes like the one below :
<INPUT type="checkbox" value="Boating" name="Activity[]"
<?docheck("Boating")?>>
When the form loads I grab the users relevant information and display
it, I am having trouble checking checkboxes that should be checked
though. Here is how I am attempting to do it.
Prior to the form loading I load an array with the required checkbox
VALUES, not names, I did it this way because I reference the checkbox
values as an array to write to a database.
As the form loads I call a function "docheck()" and pass $inputvalue
(the value of the checkbox) compare the values pulled from the database
and if there is a match, I write "CHECKED" to indicate that the user had
previously chosen this.
The function is below :
function docheck($inputvalue){
$flag = 0;
$tempcnt = 0;
$temptotal = count($editActivity);
while($tempcnt != $temptotal){
if($inputvalue == $editActivity[$tempcnt]){
$flag = 1;
}
$tempcnt++;
}
if($flag == 1){
print "CHECKED";
}
}
The problem seems to be that a "match" never occurs, I tried passing
"Boating" and re-wrote the function as such...
$flag = 0;
if($inputvalue == 'Boating'){
$flag = 1;
}
if($flag == 1){
print "CHECKED";
}
and it worked just fine, so I am of a mind that I am doing something
wrong while attempting to match my passed value with the values in my
array.
Please help!
