Yesterday I faced a situation while I was trying to get some sub-string values that derived from a single string that being saved in database, and displayed them to the checked CheckBoxes control in PHP. Let’s say I had 5 CheckBoxes control named Applications on my form, whereas the values stored in a single string from database, for instance, is: “Application 1, Application 3, Application 5″. Then I wanted that the first, the third, and the fifth CheckBoxes would be checked based on that string. So, finally, I wrote this following code to solve my problem.
Here is the code:
<?php // assuming the value of $strApplications received from database $strApplications = "Application 1, Application 3, Application 5"; ?> <tr> <td>Applications: </td> <td> <?php for ($j=1; $j<=5; $j++) { echo '<input type="checkbox" name="applications[]" value="Application '.$j.'" '; if ( strpos($strApplications, 'Application '.$j) !== false) { echo 'checked'; // which checkbox(es) should be checked } else { echo ''; // otherwise, leave it unchecked } echo '>Application '.$j.'<br />'; } ?> </td> </tr>
