RE: [PHP] radio groups in looped form
I don't think you can. The browser groups them by the name, so you will have
to write some code (simple) to change the name...

Subject: [PHP] radio groups in looped form
hiya,
I have a script that repeats a form x number of times depending on how many
records there are, what's happening is when i go to update my radio buttons
it sees every radio button on the page as the ONE group when really it's x
number of groups (again depending on how many records there are)
How can i differ between raido groups with out having to get the name
changed for every record after the 1st one?

Re: [PHP] radio groups in looped form
My question:

name? don't know, something to try.

RE: [PHP] radio groups in looped form
So far as I know, the HTML does not support arrays. However, you can make
simple code that adds number to each group so you can refer to them later
e.g.:
$i = 0;
while (your arguments) {
echo "name=\avail$i\";
$i++;
}
And afterwards you can refer to it the same way (perhaps you may want to
keep the total value of $i in a hidden form field for later use).

Re: [PHP] radio groups in looped form
by this I mean, html code of the form:
FORM NAME="form1" METHOD="post" ACTION=""
INPUT TYPE="radio" NAME="radiobutton" VALUE="radiobutton"
INPUT TYPE="radio" NAME="radiobutton" VALUE="radiobutton"
INPUT TYPE="radio" NAME="radiobutton" VALUE="radiobutton"
INPUT TYPE="radio" NAME="radiobutton" VALUE="radiobutton"
INPUT TYPE="radio" NAME="radiobutton" VALUE="radiobutton"
/FORM
FORM NAME="form2" METHOD="post" ACTION=""
INPUT TYPE="radio" NAME="radiobutton" VALUE="radiobutton"
INPUT TYPE="radio" NAME="radiobutton" VALUE="radiobutton"
INPUT TYPE="radio" NAME="radiobutton" VALUE="radiobutton"
INPUT TYPE="radio" NAME="radiobutton" VALUE="radiobutton"
INPUT TYPE="radio" NAME="radiobutton" ALUE="radiobutton"
/FORM
radiobuttons with the same name, in the same FORM tag will always be
considered a group. if they are in separate form tags, they should be
separate groups, even if the form does not have a name (unless the browser
is buggy)
the way around this is multidimensional arrays
printing your radio buttons as name="avail[1][]" will put make different
subgroups or radio buttons every time you change the index in the first [].
but, if you truly have separate form tags, the only data that is going to
get sent back, is the data within that for, doesn't matter WHAT the other
buttons in the other forms say.
personally, I try to stay away from multiple forms per page.
in a situation like yours sounds to be, I like to put a hidden field on each
line that is mykey[] and set the value to a unique id in the database.
I can then put a lot of data into multiple rows, enabling me to update a
whole group of data at once.
I still have to send one update to my database per row, but what the hell.

RE: [PHP] radio groups in looped form
One thing I forgot to mention, you can of course name the group: avail[$i]
(see below) so you will able to refer to it as an array in PHP file later
on.

So far as I know, the HTML does not support arrays. However, you can make
simple code that adds number to each group so you can refer to them later
e.g.:
$i = 0;
while (your arguments) {
echo "name=\avail[$i]\";
$i++;
}
And afterwards you can refer to it the same way (perhaps you may want to
keep the total value of $i in a hidden form field for later use).
