hi all

im having a little trouble with a PHP Echo

PHP:

<?php
$strSQL = "SELECT * FROM  game";
$result = mysql_query($strSQL);
$row = mysql_fetch_assoc($result);
$chkbox1        = $row['chkbx1'];
$chkbox2        = $row['chkbx2'];
       
echo '
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<script src="http://code.jquery.com/jquery-1.8.2.min.js"></script>
<meta charset=utf-8 />
<title></title>
</head>
<body>
<table>
        <tr>
                <td>1</td>


                <td><input type="checkbox" name="chkbox1" value="1"
 ';
                                if ($chkbox1 == 1)
                                {
                                        echo ' checked="checked"> ';
                                       
                               }
                                
                               
                                
echo '                 
               
        </tr>
        <tr>
                <td>2</td>
                <td><input type="checkbox" name="chkbox2" value="1"
                ';
                                if ($chkbox2 == 1)
                                {
                                        echo ' checked="checked"> ';
                                }
 
                        echo '
                </td>
        </tr>
</table>
  <div style="display:none">0</div>
</body>
</html>

';
?>

now if you look at the output

i need them both to read

Code:

 checked="checked">

however this does not work

any ideas?

As Craig321 mentioned, you should move the end chevron outside the IF statement otherwise if the condition fails then no end chevron is added to the input tag.

Try (short-tags replace echo, ternary IF's used) -

Code:

<?php
$strSQL = "SELECT `chkbx1`, `chkbx2` FROM `game`";
$result = mysql_query($strSQL);
$row = mysql_fetch_assoc($result);
$chkbox1 = $row['chkbx1'];
$chkbox2 = $row['chkbx2'];
?>
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<script src="http://code.jquery.com/jquery-1.8.2.min.js"></script>
<meta charset=utf-8 />
<title></title>
</head>
<body>
<table>
    <tr>
        <td>1</td>
        <input type="checkbox" se
        <td><input type="checkbox" name="chkbox1" value="1"<?=($chkbox1 == 1)?' checked="checked"':''?>></td>
    </tr>
    <tr>
        <td>2</td>
        <td><input type="checkbox" name="chkbox2" value="1"<?=($chkbox2 == 1)?' checked="checked"':''?>></td>
    </tr>
</table>
<div style="display:none">0</div>
</body>
</html>
