I have been searching for a way to add up the total sum of radio buttons and echo it that total on the same page in php. Is there a way to do this? I have included an image of what I am looking at.
Here is code that I have come up with so far:
PHP
<?php
$prod1 = "10";
$prod2 = "20";
$prod3 = "30";
?>
<form action="">
<input type="radio" name="prod1" value="<?=$prod1?>">$10 product 1<br>
<input type="radio" name="prod2" value="<?=$prod2?>">$20 product 2<br>
<input type="radio" name="prod3" value="<?=$prod3?>">$30 product 3
</form>
<!-- This is where the total shows live upon radio check -->
<?php
echo ="$total"
?>
I am new so it will not post an image, here is a link to my image:
Working example
You need an element where the total is going to be, and a way of identifying those inputs. I've used input which isn't very specific; You may want to change this if you have more going on in that form.
I bound change to the form (which I gave the id products) because the change events made on the inputs will bubble up to the form, and we need to search the whole form for all the inputs so it made sense not to have to traverse, which we'd need to do if the function was bound to the input fields.
Then simply, on change of something in the form, add up the values of the checked elements. parseFloat() is used because the values are strings and you'd end up with "102030" where you really wanted "60".
HTML
<form action="" id="products">
<label><input type="radio" name="prod1" value="10" />$10 product 1</label>
<br />
<label><input type="radio" name="prod2" value="20" />$20 product 2</label>
<br />
<label><input type="radio" name="prod3" value="30" />$30 product 3</label>
</form>
<p>Total $<span id="total">0</span></p>
jQuery
$(function(){
$('#products').on('change', function(){
var total = 0;
$(this).find('input:checked').each(function(){
total += parseFloat($(this).val());
});
$('#total').text(total);
});
});
By the way, if the user is supposed to be able to uncheck these options, you need to use <input type="checkbox" ...

Is it possible, for example, if I choose more than 1 checkbox it will submite multiple forms with the other camps that I have but the only thing that will change is the value of the checkbox.
I will give a more detailed example.
I have 2 camps, 1 with the name and the other with the email and the other is those checkbox. And If I choose 2 checkbox it will submit the forum 2 times with the same name and the same email but one will be with 1 value and the other will be with the other value that I selected.
<div class="form-group">
<label>Test</label>
<div class="custom-control custom-radio">
<input type="checkbox" id="0" name="server" class="custom-control-input">
<label class="custom-control-label" for="0">Everywhere</label>
</div>
<div class="custom-control custom-radio">
<input value="1" type="checkbox" name="server" id="test" class="custom-control-input">
<label class="custom-control-label" for="teste" value="1">test</label>
</div>
<div class="custom-control custom-radio">
<input value="2" type="checkbox" name="server" id="test2" class="custom-control-input">
<label class="custom-control-label" for="test2" value="2">test2</label>
</div>
</div>
Thanks U all for your time, sorry if I wasn't detailed enough but just say it and I will improve it! Feel free to send me any link do study and implement in the code ;)
When using a checkbox, as long as they all share the Same name then they will be submitted as ONE value. Example:
A checkbox named Hobbies will submit an array of values checked when the form is submitted with a result that looks like [Cooking, Running, Jumping, Gaming]. All of that is 1 value, and not 4.
The input element is how many different results you want back.
The name attribute tag is identifies which response the answer belongs to.
The value attribute tag is what will be sent inside of the value, i.e. [1,2,3] or [A, B, C].
Please rephrase your question if you felt i did not meet the answer you were looking for. It was difficult to understand.
Edit after reading comment.
Your issue seem to be on your understanding of the form element, and not that on the checkbox attribute.
Please consider wrapping your inputs and form data inside a form tag. All inputs inside will be submitted as one, rather than as separate or individual. Your html structure seems to be what is causing your issue.
<form action="/action_page.php">
First name:<br>
<input type="text" value="Mickey"><br>
Last name:<br>
<input type="text" name="lastname" value="Mouse"><br><br>
<input type="checkbox" name="vehicle1" value="Bike"> I have a bike<br>
<input type="checkbox" name="vehicle2" value="Car"> I have a car
<input type="submit" value="Submit">
</form>
Everything inside that form element will be submitted as one POST, and from there, you can request the values from the [vehicle1] or [vehicle2] question.
HTML
<form id="form-id">
First name:<br>
<input type="text" value="Mickey"><br>
Last name:<br>
<input type="text" name="lastname" value="Mouse"><br><br>
<input type="checkbox" name="vehicle1" value="Bike"> I have a bike<br>
<input type="checkbox" name="vehicle2" value="Car"> I have a car
<input type="submit" value="Submit">
</form>
JAVASCRIPT
var ele1 = document.getElementById("form-id1"); //Your Form Element
var ele2 = document.getElementById("form-id2"); //Your Form Element
//Detects whenever this particular form is "submitted"
if(ele.addEventListener){ //Modern browsers
ele.addEventListener("submit", function(e){
ele1.action="yourUrl1";
ele1.submit();
ele2.action="yourUrl2";
ele2.submit();
//return false; //stops page from refreshing after submit
});
} else if(ele.attachEvent){ //Old IE
ele.attachEvent('onsubmit', function(e){
ele1.action="yourUrl1";
ele1.submit();
ele2.action="yourUrl2";
ele2.submit();
//return false; //stops page from refreshing after submit
});
}
I modified my response, but you might be better just connecting the two forms together. You can reference a form element from different parts of your html.
form
The form element that the input element is associated with (its form owner). The value of the attribute must be an id of a element in the same document. If this attribute isn't used, the element is associated with its nearest ancestor element, if any. This attribute lets you to place elements anywhere within a document, not just as descendants of form elements. An input can be associated with at most one form.
formaction
The URL that processes the data submitted by the input element, if it is a submit button or image. This attribute overrides the action attribute of the element's form owner.

How do we dynamically display the sum of all the values of check boxes that have been checked in php.
Its basically like a checkout in a shopping cart.Each item that is to be checked, has a value and the final amount(in the same page at the bottom) should be the sum of rates of all the items that have been checked(without refreshing).
I may need to use AJAX. Can anyone give a simple sample code please
For the checkboxes, you need to make them into an array, say for instance:
<input type="checkbox" name="items[]" id="items[]" value="25" /><br />
<input type="checkbox" name="items[]" id="items[]" value="40" /><br />
<input type="checkbox" name="items[]" id="items[]" value="12" /><br />
... <!-- as many as you want -->
<input type="checkbox" name="items[]" id="items[]" value="20" /><br />
On the PHP side you could then handle it like so...(NOTE: It will come into PHP as an array)
$items = $_POST["items"];
//it's an array -- feel free to do a var_dump($items) to see its content
//to sum you could even do an $total_amount = array_sum($items);
//but i would advise cleaning up the values first
And yes, you can achieve the same if you submit the form using AJAX (e.g. via jQuery)
Happy coding :)
This question is similar to my previous question but not the same ... please check out....I am using totaly 3 webpages; form elements are distributed among two pages, "eg1.html" and "eg2.html", but all the form elements should be submitted to "eg.php".
Here is the code for eg.php which accepts the form elements from both eg1.html and eg2.html:
$size=$_POST["fontsize"];
$label=$_POST["label"];
$age=$_POST["age"];
$sex =$_POST["sex"];
code for eg1.html
<html>
<body>
<form action="eg.php" method="post">
<input type="radio" name="fontsize" value="3"/>
click here to select other options which includes age and sex
<input type="radio" name="label" value="stacks"/>
<input type="submit" name = "down" value = "down">
</form>
</body>
Now What would be the code for eg2.html? just check out sample partial html code :but needs to be compleated....
<input type="radio" name="age" value="3"/>
<input type="radio" name="sex" value="female"/>
The code should work exactly like this:
First user will open eg1.php he selects only one option that is "fontsize" .. next he clicks on the "link to eg2.html" to select two more options "age" and "sex" after selecting... he will be redirected back to eg1.php where he has to select one more option that is "label" ... then he will submit the form to eg.php. Which will hold all form elements those are 'fontsize' 'age' 'sex' and 'label' .....
I have seen many website using this technique please check out cooltext.com where user will get an option to click on the font image which will redirect him to fonts page after selecting one of the fonts images he will be redirected back to homepage,where he can select some other form elements or form elements and finally submits the form .... i have also seen many websites using this technique , i think this can be done using JQUERY/JavaScript but not sure ...please help me to fix this problem guyz,.,,,
Using js you can have the entire form on one page and divide it in steps like this
<form action="eg.php" method="post">
<div class="step1">
<input type="radio" name="fontsize" value="3"/>
click here to select other options which includes age and sex
<input type="radio" name="label" value="stacks"/>
<input type="submit" name = "down" value = "down">
</div>
<div class="step2">
click here to go back to step1
<input type="radio" name="age" value="3"/>
<input type="radio" name="sex" value="female"/>
<input type="submit" value="Submit"/>
</div>
</form>
js:
$('#step1_submit').click(function(){
$('#step1').hide();
$('#step2').show();
});
$('#step2_back').click(function(){
$('#step1').show();
$('#step2').hide();
});
Im trying to create a form using PHP and I cant seem to find a tutorial on what I need so thought Id ask on here.
I have a multiple checkbox option on my page...
<li>
<label>What service are you enquiring about?</label>
<input type="checkbox" value="Static guarding" name="service">Static guarding<br>
<input type="checkbox" value="Mobile Patrols" name="service">Mobile Patrols<br>
<input type="checkbox" value="Alarm response escorting" name="service">Alarm response escorting<br>
<input type="checkbox" value="Alarm response/ Keyholding" name="service">Alarm response/ Keyholding<br>
<input type="checkbox" value="Other" name="service">Other<input type="hidden" value="Other" name="service"></span>
</li>
I'm not sure however how to collect all checkbox values using POST method?
if i use
$service = $_POST['service'];
I only get 'other' returned
Name the fields like service[] instead of service, then you'll be able to access it as array. After that, you can apply regular functions to arrays:
Check if a certain value was selected:
if (in_array("Other", $_POST['service'])) { /* Other was selected */}
Get a single newline-separated string with all selected options:
echo implode("\n", $_POST['service']);
Loop through all selected checkboxes:
foreach ($_POST['service'] as $service) {
echo "You selected: $service <br>";
}
Currently it's just catching your last hidden input. Why do you have that hidden input there at all? If you want to gather information if the "Other" box is checked, then you have to hide the
<input type="text" name="other" style="display:none;"/>
and you can show it with javascript when the "Other" box is checked. Something like that.
Just make the name attribute service[]
<li>
<label>What service are you enquiring about?</label>
<input type="checkbox" value="Static guarding" name="service[]">Static guarding<br />
<input type="checkbox" value="Mobile Patrols" name="service[]">Mobile Patrols<br />
<input type="checkbox" value="Alarm response escorting" name="service[]">Alarm response escorting<br />
<input type="checkbox" value="Alarm response/ Keyholding" name="service[]">Alarm response/ Keyholding<br />
<input type="checkbox" value="Other" name="service[]">Other</span>
</li>
Then in your PHP you can access it like so
$service = $_POST['service'];
echo $service[0]; // Output will be the value of the first selected checkbox
echo $service[1]; // Output will be the value of the second selected checkbox
print_r($service); //Output will be an array of values of the selected checkboxes
etc...
<input type="checkbox" value="Other" name="service">Other<input type="hidden" value="Other" name="service"></span>
You've got a hidden input field with the same name as the checkbox. "later" fields with the same name as an earlier one will overwrite the previous field's values. This means that your form, as posted above, will ALWAYS submit service=Other.
Given the phrasing of your question in the html, it sounds more like you'd want a radio button, which allows only ONE of a group of same-name fields to be selected. Checkboxes are an "AND" situation, radio buttons correspond to "OR"
hi
currently am developing my website for payment process. most probably i have completed my work on it. whats my question in my website finally i mentioned payment delivery details which has three radio buttons with values (in pounds).after customer clicks that those buttons the corresponding value should add with addcart and display the final amount. this is the web page i need http://spsmobile.co.uk/make-payment.php/ am tottaly confusing what code should i apply on it.
can any one post me the correct code.
happy new year
thanks in adv
Using Radio Buttons:
HTML
For each option you create a radio Button:
...
<input type="radio" name="delivery" value="signed" cheked="cheked">text bla</input>
<input type="radio" name="delivery" value="special">more text bla</input>
<input type="radio" name="delivery" value="international">even more text bla</input>
Notie that they all share a common name ("delivery").
The option with the checked="checked" attribute will be selected by default,
PHP
I your user submits the form you can acess the selected option with $_POST["delivery"] or $_GET["delivery]. which ine contains the data depends on wheter you use GET or POST for your form.
You cn specify this in the main form element:
<form ... method="POST">...
Change your form's radio fields to following:
<input name='totalamount' id='totalamount' value='0' />
<div id='rmr'>
<input name="rmr" id="rmr_signed" type="radio" value="3" />
<input name="rmr" id="rmr_special" type="radio" value="5.5" />
<input name="rmr" id="rmr_international" type="radio" value="10" />
</div>
Now by using jquery you can write
in function show_make_payment_validation write
jQuery('#rmr input[type=radio]').each(function(){
var total = parseInt(jQuery('input[name="rmr"]:checked', '#myForm').val()) + parseInt(jQuery('#totalamount').val());
jQuery('#totalamount').val(total);
}
Why not just give your radio buttons a quick onclick event and update the total accordingly?
Somthing like:
Total: £<span id="total_amt" class="repair-finalamount-txt">0.00</span>
...
<input name="rmr" type="radio" title="3.00" value="1">
<input name="rmr" type="radio" title="5.50" value="2">
<input name="rmr" type="radio" title="10.00" value="3">
...
And for jQuery code:
jQuery('input[type="radio"][name="rmr"]').click(function() {
jQuery('span#total_amt').val(jQuery(this).attr('title'));
});
I haven't ran or tested it, so no guarantee the above code is flawless ;)
