Creating input boxes within a PHP If statement

[OE07U]

Hi all. I'm new to the forum, and relatively new to webdesign, so please treat me gently.

I have a website which uses PHP, an SQL database and FPDF to create letters to print.

On one page I have a form with a radio button group that carries forward values from 1 - 4 to the next page using post/session variables.

On the second page can I create dynamic input boxes dependent on the value carried forward? Would this be PHP?

e.g

<?php
if ($_SESSION['CT_ST'] == "1" ) {
An input box for a Name would be created ;
}elseif ($_SESSION['CT_ST'] == "2" ) {
A checbox for Home owner would be created ;
}elseif ($_SESSION['CT_ST'] == "3" ) {
etc
}elseif ($_SESSION['CT_ST'] == "4" ) {
etc
}
end
?>

I've tried various versions but none seem to work.



Thanks

Hi OE07U,

it looks as though you're on the right track, yet in order to be able to fully help you can you please submit the full example of your PHP and HTML (the form and the script processing it) code?

Have you tried echoing the values of the submitted data? I.E. does the SESSION contain the information expected?

Good luck,
