Hi All,

I have some code which should delete some records.
It is a bulletin board page with posts. I want to delete the posts of
which the checkbox has been checked.

echo '<form name="form" id="form" method="post">';
if (isset($_SESSION['idx'])) {
if($account_type == 'c') {
$outputList .= '<td width="10%" ><div class="name"
align="left"><input type="checkbox" name="delete" value="' . $id . '" /
> </div></td>';
}
}

echo '</form>';

if (isset($_POST['bb_index']) && !empty($_POST['form'])) {
foreach($_POST['form'] as $id) {
// This is a loop with the var $id containing
// all items that were checked to be deleted
print 'Delete this $id';

}
}


if (isset($_SESSION['idx'])) {
if($account_type == 'c') {
echo '<a href="bb_index.php?post=delete"><img src="images/
Delete.png" border="0" width="30" height="30" /></a>';
}} ?>

My code doesn't print any records even when some are checked.

To start with, what's in your $_POST variable?

Also, if you set the name of your checkbox to "delete", you will only
get one value in your $_POST variable. You can either give each
checkbox a unique name, or (preferably) use 'delete[]' - which will
provide an array of checked boxes in your $_POST variable.

Jerry,

What do you mean with the first question?

If I do it like this:

if (isset($_SESSION['idx'])) {
if($account_type == 'c') {
$outputList .= '<td width="10%" ><div class="name"
align="left"><input type="checkbox" name="checkbox[]" id="checkbox[]"
value="' . $id . '" /></div></td>';
}
}
How can I loop through the records later?

Marco

Just what I said. What's in $_POST when you get the results back?

print_r($_POST);

does wonders for debugging!

You don't need the id - that's for DOM (and each id must be unique).

When you get the results back the choices (if any) will be in
$_POST['checkbox'], which will be an array. Again, print out the values
in $_POST so you can see them.
