I'm running into some problems when I'm trying to do a simple checkbox deal on php. I was wondering if you guys knew anything I didn't. Take a look at this.


test1.php:

<html>
<body>
<form name=myForm action="test2.php" method="post">
Enter random text
<br>
<li><input type="text" name="test"></li>
<br>
Check me or not:
<INPUT type="checkbox" name="testcheck" value="1"><BR>
<input type="submit" value="Submit">
</form>
</body>
</html>


test2.php:

<html>
<body>
<?
$check = $_POST['testcheck'];
if($check) {
print ('box is checked');
} else{
print ('box is NOT checked');
}
?>
</body>
</html>

But for reason when my box is unchecked my broswer is displaying:

'Notice: Undefined index: testcheck in C:\Program Files\Apache Group\Apache2\htdocs\test2.php on line 5
box is NOT checked'

I don't know how to get rid of this freaking 'Notice'.

When the box is checked then it says:

'box is checked'

which is ok. Anyone have any ideas?
 
its an option in your php.ini, change
error_reporting
variable to
error_reporting = E_ALL & ~E_NOTICE

That will show all errors except for notices (which are like warnings)



 
PM a member here named notfred. He is a very good perl/cgi guy. He might know about php as well.
 
Try:

<?
$check = $_POST['testcheck'];
if($check != null) {
print ('box is checked');
} else{
print ('box is NOT checked');
}
?>

or use the isnull() function, e.g. if(!isnull($check))

Or, for that matter, (!empty($check))
 
Or, perhaps,

try {

$check = $_POST['testcheck'];

} catch (Exception $e) {
echo 'box is not checked';
$check = false;
}

 
If it's saying there's a problem with the index, then it's in the line "$check = $_POST['testcheck']; "
So, try testing $_POST['testcheck'] directly.
