Re: [PHP-DB] how to preseve value of radio-butons when form is refreshed? From: Jonathan Hilgeman (jhilgeman <email protected>)
Date: 06/28/01

Lets say you have the following inputs:
<INPUT TYPE='Checkbox' NAME='MrCheckBox' VALUE='ImaChecked!'>
<INPUT TYPE='Radio' NAME='ColorPreference' VALUE='Green'>
<INPUT TYPE='Radio' NAME='ColorPreference' VALUE='Brown'>

And you wanted MrCheckBox to be marked, and the ColorPreference to be Brown.
You would have PHP output this:
<INPUT TYPE='Checkbox' NAME='MrCheckBox' VALUE='ImaChecked!' CHECKED>
<INPUT TYPE='Radio' NAME='ColorPreference' VALUE='Green'>
<INPUT TYPE='Radio' NAME='ColorPreference' VALUE='Brown' CHECKED>

I normally do this:
1. Retrieve Info from DB

2. If ( ColorPreference = Green )
    {
         $GreenChecked = "CHECKED";
     }
    elseif ( ColorPreference = Brown )
    {
         $BrownChecked = "CHECKED";
     }

<INPUT TYPE='Radio' NAME='ColorPreference' VALUE='Green' $GreenChecked>
<INPUT TYPE='Radio' NAME='ColorPreference' VALUE='Brown' $BrownChecked>

This way, one of those variables will contain the word CHECKED, which will
in turn, mark the desired radio button.
