c_pattle Posted October 2, 2010 Share Posted October 2, 2010 I have a form that contains radio buttons and when it is submitted the content of the form are added to a database. I was wondering how you get the values of radio boxes when submitting the form. I have the following radio buttons and when submitting I use "$_POST['article_type']" but this doesn't seem to work. Thanks for any help. <label>PDF Article</label><input name="article_type" value="pdf" type="radio" /> <label>Video Webcast</label><input name="article_type" value="webcast" type="radio" /> <label>Podcast</label><input name="article_type" value="podcast" type="radio" /> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jskywalker Posted October 2, 2010 Share Posted October 2, 2010 If you save this code in a file named 'check.php' this works: <?php print_r($_POST); ?> <HR> <FORM METHOD="POST" ACTION="check.php"> <input type="submit" value="submit"> <label>PDF Article</label><input name="article_type" value="pdf" type="radio" /> <label>Video Webcast</label><input name="article_type" value="webcast" type="radio" /> <label>Podcast</label><input name="article_type" value="podcast" type="radio" /> </form> which part am i missing ?
