In this part:
name="delete[{$a_Row['ID']}]"
I presume I would be including that in the echo for the checkbox elements
somehow?
Something along the lines of:
echo '<input type="checkbox" name="delete[{$a_Row['ID']}]" value="1" />';
Sorry, but haven't really done too much with PHP before apart from simple
things like guestbooks etc.
TIA
Stay well

Hi there
I'm specifically doing something like displaying search results up to 50
records, and I would like to be able to provide something like a checkbox
next to each of them to allow multiple records to then be deleted at one
time, but the problem seems to be that either either checkbox needs to be
assigned a different name, or else I would need to be able to parse the
URL
of the resulting page when the form is submitted since I don't seem to be
able to access something like an array of values for a form field with
the
shared name of the multiple checkboxes, since while it will allow me to
read
from an array for the name of that form field:
$_GET['chkBox'][0]
It tells me the count for that array is only 1, and always returns the
last
checked value.
Therefore, I could either try use something like javascript to populate a
hidden form field with the various values when the checkboxes are
checked,
or else could try just doing something like parsing the querystring/URL
since it does get populated with something like:
chkBox=1&chkBox=2
for example...
Any thoughts on this, and thoughts on what would be the best workaround?
TIA

Say the ID of the row from the DB is held in $a_Row['ID'].
Make the name of the checkbox ...
name="delete[{$a_Row['ID']}]"
Now, $_POST['delete'] will be an array of IDs to delete.
