siabanie Posted August 27, 2011 Share Posted August 27, 2011 Hi guys, I have some confusion here - I am trying to create a check box where when you tick the box but forget to fill in some other fields - How can you make sure the box stays ticked when we are taken back to the application page? Here is snippets of the code: .. $error = 0; $errormsg = ""; .. if( !isset($_POST['noemail']) && (empty($_POST['email1']) || !check_text($_POST['email1'])) ) { $error = 1; $errormsg .= "Please enter your requested email address 1<br>"; $errornum[3] = 1; } if( !isset($_POST['noemail']) && (empty($_POST['email2']) || !check_text($_POST['email2'])) ) { $error = 1; $errormsg .= "Please enter your requested email address 2<br>"; $errornum[3] = 1; }.. The Form .. .. <tr> <td><input name="noemail" type="checkbox" value="noemail"> Do not want to get the E-mail address </td> </tr> <tr> <td nowrap>First Choice <input name="email1" type="text" <?php if ($_POST['action'] == "register") { echo 'value="'.$_POST['email1'].'"'; } ?>> </td> </tr> <tr> <td nowrap>Second Choice <input name="email2" type="text" <?php if ($_POST['action'] == "register") { echo 'value="'.$_POST['email2'].'"'; } ?>> </td> </tr> I tired used session e.g: <td><input name="noemail" type="checkbox" value="noemail"<?php echo ($_SESSION["noemail"]=='noemail' ? ' checked="checked"' : '');?>> but it is still did not work - can anyone please assist me what I need to edit or did wrong. Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
