mpsn Posted June 1, 2011 Share Posted June 1, 2011 Hi, I want to build into my html table that populates my database table to have a column for checkboxes with a delete button that takes the user to another page to confirm the deletion by outputting a message: Are you sure you want to delete ____, followed by a for loop to see how many checked records to get its ID in order to get its appropriate name. So I have a submit button with name attribute of "delete0" and the values of the input type of checkbox is $row['ID'], for some reason, I get the notice: "Notice: Undefined index: modifyArray in C:\display.php" and modifyArray is the name I give to the checkbox attribute (please see this in my display.php below) Here is my display.php <table border="border"> <!--NB: checkbox form for multiple delete/update/insert--> <form method="post" action=""> <input type='submit' value='DELETE' name='delete0' /> <?php session_start(); require 'bellSessionDisconnect.inc'; require 'bellConnect.inc.php'; $result=mysql_query("SELECT ID, Image, Name, Manufacturer, Price, Description, SimSupport FROM bellProducts"); //phpinfo(); //NB: print table headings if(mysql_num_rows($result))//if there is at least one entry in bellProducts, make a table { //$counter+=1; print "<table border='border'>"; print "<tr> <th>ID</th> <th>Select entries to modifiy</th> <th>Image</th> <th>Name</th> <th>Manufacturer</th> <th>Price</th> <th>Description</th> <th>SimSupport</th> <th colspan='2' align='center'>Modify</th> </tr>"; //NB: now output each row of records while($row=mysql_fetch_assoc($result)) { //extract($row); print "<tr align='center'> <td>$row[iD]</td> <td><input type='checkbox' name='modifyArray[]' value='$row[iD]' /></td> <td>"; if(!empty($row['Image'])) { $curImage=$row['Image']; } else if(empty($row['Image'])) { $curImage='fileUploadIcon.jpg'; //$title="please upload item image"; } print "<img src=$curImage width='70px' height='90px' /> </td> <td> $row[Name] </td> <td> $row[Manufacturer] </td> <td> $$row[Price]</td> <td align='left'>$row[Description]</td> <td>$row[simSupport]</td> <td><a href='bellUploadForm.php?ID=$row[iD]'>UPLOAD IMAGE</a></td> <td><a href='bellUpdateForm.php?ID=$row[iD]'>UPDATE</a></td> </tr>"; //}//END INNER IF }//END WHILE }//END BIG IF ?> <?php if(array_key_exists('delete0', $_POST)) { $modifyArray=$_POST["modifyArray"]; if(!empty($modifyArray)) { header("Location: http://localhost/bellDeleteForm.php"); exit(); } } ?> </form> </table> I will worry about redirecting to bellDeleteForm.php to confirm the records the user wants to delete after I get this going, please help!!!

requinix Posted June 1, 2011 Share Posted June 1, 2011 $_POST["modifyArray"] will only exist if at least one checkbox was checked... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mpsn Posted June 2, 2011 Author Share Posted June 2, 2011 Ok, I added the checked='checked' attribute for the checkbox input type, which happens to check all the entries in my html table that populates my db table, but I only want one checkbox checked (i don't know how since it's a while loop), but anyways I still get the notice: "Notice: Undefined index: modifyArray in C:\display.php". Here is my display.php again. Please help, thx. display.php <html> <head> <body> <table border="border"> <!--NB: checkbox form for multiple delete/update/insert--> <form method="post" action=""> <input type='submit' value='DELETE' name='delete0' /> <!--name has suffix 0 to not get get mixed up with the submit name in update/delete php--> <!--<input type="submit" value="UPDATE" name="update0" />--> <?php session_start(); require 'bellSessionDisconnect.inc'; require 'bellConnect.inc.php'; $result=mysql_query("SELECT ID, Image, Name, Manufacturer, Price, Description, SimSupport FROM bellProducts"); //phpinfo(); //NB: print table headings if(mysql_num_rows($result))//if there is at least one entry in bellProducts, make a table { //$counter+=1; print "<table border='border'>"; print "<tr> <th>ID</th> <th>Select entries to modifiy</th> <th>Image</th> <th>Name</th> <th>Manufacturer</th> <th>Price</th> <th>Description</th> <th>SimSupport</th> <th colspan='2' align='center'>Modify</th> </tr>"; //NB: now output each row of records while($row=mysql_fetch_assoc($result)) { //extract($row); print "<tr align='center'> <td>$row[iD]</td> <td><input type='checkbox' name='modifyArray[]' value='$row[iD]' checked='checked' /></td> <td>"; if(!empty($row['Image'])) { $curImage=$row['Image']; } else if(empty($row['Image'])) { $curImage='fileUploadIcon.jpg'; //$title="please upload item image"; } print "<img src=$curImage width='70px' height='90px' /> </td> <td> $row[Name] </td> <td> $row[Manufacturer] </td> <td> $$row[Price]</td> <td align='left'>$row[Description]</td> <td>$row[simSupport]</td> <td><a href='bellUploadForm.php?ID=$row[iD]'>UPLOAD IMAGE</a></td> <td><a href='bellUpdateForm.php?ID=$row[iD]'>UPDATE</a></td> </tr>"; //}//END INNER IF }//END WHILE }//END BIG IF ?> <?php if(array_key_exists('delete0', $_POST)) { $modifyArray=$_POST["modifyArray"]; if(!empty($modifyArray)) { header("Location: http://localhost/bellDeleteForm.php"); exit(); } } ?> </form> </table> </body> </html> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
