Dear group, I am a novice programmer started doing php to process a query form of my patients. I have a database and one table in it deals with my patient information. Depending on their condition I divided their age groups into 3 categories. In my database a table patient_data has a column age_group and a patient can be any one of young, middle or old category. Now the possibility is that a user can selecct 1 or 2 or all three options. In the query form, I gave the option for a user as a check box. The piece of html code is as below: <DIV>Age group</DIV> <DIV>Young<input type="checkbox" name="" value=""></DIV> <DIV>Middle<input type="checkbox" name="" value=""></DIV> <DIV>Old<input type="checkbox" name="" value=""></DIV> Problem: I want to capture the user options and create an SQL statement: Select age_group from patient_data where age_group = young and old ; I am truly stuck here. Can any one please help me out to pass this situation. Thank you in advance. Kumar. __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo! Mail - You care about security.
