The code below is a dynamic way of displaying each option as checkbox buttons for each question:
function ExpandOptionType($option) {
$options = explode('-', $option);
if(count($options) > 1) {
$start = array_shift($options);
$end = array_shift($options);
do {
$options[] = $start;
}while(++$start <= $end);
}
else{
$options = explode(' or ', $option);
}
echo '<p>';
foreach($options as $indivOption) {
echo '<div id="ck-button"><label class="fixedLabelCheckbox"><input type="checkbox" name="options[]" id="option-' . $indivOption . '" value="' . $indivOption . '" /><span>' . $indivOption . '</span></label></div>';
}
echo '</p>';
}
foreach ($arrQuestionId as $key=>$question) {
?>
<p><?php echo ExpandOptionType(htmlspecialchars($arrOptionType[$key])); ?></p>
<p><input type='text' class='questionIds' name='questionids' value='<?php echo htmlspecialchars($arrQuestionId[$key]); ?>' /></p>
<p><input type='text' class='responseTime' name='responsetime' value='00:00:00' /></p>
<p><input type='text' class='mouseClick' name='mouseclick' value='0' /></p>
}
Now below I 2 text inputs which are also in the foreach loop, one for response time and other is for counting mouse click:
<p><input type='text' class='responseTime' name='responsetime' value='00:00:00' /></p>
<p><input type='text' class='mouseClick' name='mouseclick' value='0' /></p>
Now this is my questions:
The response time text input contains a count up timer. What I want is that if the first button checkbox is clicked in a question, the question's response timer should stop. This is so we know how long it took the user to respond answering a particular question
The mouse click text starts with 0 and what I want this text input to do is for every button checkbox that is clicked in a question, the question's mouse click text input counts up the amount of clicks so we know how many clicks on the question's options the user has compiled.
How can the above be achieved?
Below is a jsfiddle showing sample code of what it looks like for one question:

<p><input type='text' class='mouseClick' name='mouseclick' value='0' /></p>
As you created a reference for setinterval that is good. Now you can remove the set interval on click event of first checkbox and add a click event on all checkbox to increase counter.
That will be
$(document).ready(function(){
var checkBox=$('#ck-button').find('input');
var responsetimer=//your interval function
checkbox.filter(':first').bind('click',function(e){
clearInterval(responsetimer);
});
checkbox.bind('click',function(e){
$('.mouseClick').val(parseInt($('.mouseClick').val())+1);
});
});
Well i am not sure about the question you want timer to be stopped at first button click or first time button clicked. If it is first time than dont use the first binding . keep clear interval in second binding itself.
checkbox.bind('click',function(e){
clearInterval(responsetimer);
$('.mouseClick').val(parseInt($('.mouseClick').val())+1);
});

for second option
http://jsfiddle.net/zAFND/638/
UPDATE
if you want this for multiple question wrap each question with a div say <div class="queWrap"></div>
Make a array refrence for your interval function so that it can be clear.
Loop to each queWrap and start timer and assign events on checkbox.

I am working on a PHP Quiz System which displays all questions on one page.
The following is my code.
PHP
$getQ = mysqli_query($condb, "select * from questions where eid = '$exam'");
if($getQ){
if(mysqli_num_rows($getQ)==0){
$summaryLink = 'examSummary.php?exam='.$exam;
redirect($summaryLink);
}
Form
<?php while($ans = mysqli_fetch_array($getQ)){ ?>
<div class="ques" id="ques">
<input type="hidden" name="exam" value="<?php echo $exam; ?>">
<input type="hidden" name="question" value="<?php echo $token; ?>">
<input type="hidden" name="qid" id="qid" value="<?php echo $ans['qid'];?>">
<input type="hidden" name="sid" id="sid" value="<?php echo $_SESSION['sid']; ?>">
<p>
<input type="radio" name="answer" value="1" id="answer" onChange="update();">
<label for="<?php echo $ans['option_1'];?>"><?php echo $ans['option_1'];?></label>
</p>
<p>
<input type="radio" name="answer" value="2" id="answer" onChange="update();">
<label for="<?php echo $ans['option_2'];?>"><?php echo $ans['option_2'];?></label>
</p>
<p>
<input type="radio" name="answer" value="3" id="answer" onChange="update();">
<label for="<?php echo $ans['option_3'];?>"><?php echo $ans['option_3'];?></label>
</p>
<p>
<input type="radio" name="answer" value="4" id="answer" onChange="update();">
<label for="<?php echo $ans['option_4'];?>"><?php echo $ans['option_4'];?></label>
</p>
<p>
<input type="radio" name="answer" value="5" id="answer" onChange="update();">
<label for="<?php echo $ans['option_5'];?>"><?php echo $ans['option_5'];?></label>
</p>
<div class="status2"></div>
What I want to do is, once the user select an answer for a questions, the selected option and few other hidden form data (qid, eid, sid) should be passed to updateAnswer.php
updateAnswer.php will update the selected answer to the database.
I tired the following jQuery. But it wont do anything.
<script>
function update() {
var radVal = $("input[type=radio][name=answer]:checked").val();
jQuery.ajax({
url: "updateAnswer.php",
data:'eid='+$("#eid").val()+'&sid='+$("#sid").val()+'&qid='+$("#qid").val()+'&answer='+$(radVal).val(),
type: "POST",
success:function(data){
$(".status2").html(data);
},
error:function (){}
});
}
</script>
The system should pass data to updateAnswer.php when a user clicks on an option(answer).
But with my current code, when a user clicks on an option won't do anything.
So, there are some mistakes in your code, first one is that the id should always be unique, so before your while loop take a variable and initialize it to zero and increment it on every iteration; You can use this variable and append after every id to make it unique. Like so -
<?php
$i = 0;
while(bla bla){
$i++;
?>
<!-- You can also use question id here ↓↓ which should be unique -->
<input type="hidden" name="qid" id="<?php echo "qid".$i; ?>" value="<?php echo $ans['qid'];?>">
<!-- session id will be the same -->
<input type="hidden" name="sid" id="sid" value="<?php echo $_SESSION['sid']; ?>">
<!-- same for others -->
<?php
}
?>
You also need to give this($i or question-id(whichever you choose)) as an attribute to radio buttons to identify which question id we need to get and on update function you need to pass the current checked element, like so -
<input type="radio" name="answer" value="1" class="answer" onChange="update(this);" data-id="<?php echo $i; ?>">
<input type="radio" name="answer" value="2" class="answer" onChange="update(this);" data-id="<?php echo $i; ?>">
<!-- same for others -->
I've created a working snippet for your problem(without PHP and AJAX of course). I've given them unique id and values, I'm printing the desired values on the console. I've changed the AJAX code as well, you can use it in your code to check if it works. Comments are mentioned wherever necessary, see if it helps you.
function update(element) {
let answer = $(element).val(); // get the value of checked element
let id = $(element).attr('data-id'); // get id of the radio button clicked
let eid = $('#eid').val(); // exam id will be same for all the questions
let sid = $('#sid').val(); // session id will be same
let qid = $('#qid' + id).val(); // get question id
// send ajax request
/*jQuery.ajax({
url: "updateAnswer.php",
data: 'eid=' + eid + '&sid=' + sid + '&qid=' + qid + '&answer=' + answer,
type: "POST",
success: function(data) {
$('#status' + id).html(data); // show status on the related div
},
error: function() {}
});*/
console.clear();
console.log(`id: ${id}, eid: ${eid}, sid: ${sid}, qid: ${qid}`)

This is the code and In this page the user has to select atleast one option for every question
First you need to name the grouped inputs that are alike the same name in your HTML.
Use .on(change function() then locate the input (element) you're using, $(this) and get its name.
Then we write a conditional to see if it is checked, if so remove any other instances of a check from that <input> names group.
EDIT: Function on each input to check the onchange and then if all instances of your inputs has one checked element we change the disabled attribute to false, unlocking the submit button.
You can add display messages if you like and css to the Jquery code by adding an empty <div id="msg"></div> where you want to display info, then call on the value of that div to place text there depending on the message you wish to convey.
//--> Remove the code below if you do want the user to only select one option per
//--> group and it is okay for them to select multiple options per group...
$(':checkbox').on('change', function() {
var th = $(this),
name = th.prop('name');
if (th.is(':checked')) {
th.attr('checked', 'checked');
$(':checkbox[name="' + name + '"]').not($(this)).prop('checked', false);
}
});
//--> This handles the locking of the submit button
function checkChecked(divId) {
var oneOfEachChecked = false;
$('#' + divId + ' input[type="checkbox"]').each(function() {
if ($(".check_answer1").is(":checked") && $(".check_answer2").is(":checked") && $(".check_answer3").is(":checked")) {
oneOfEachChecked = true;
$('#submit').prop('disabled', false);
$('#mash').show().text(' <--- Mash me now, I am unlocked!').css('background', 'lightgreen');
}
});
if (oneOfEachChecked === false) {
$('#submit').prop('disabled', true);
$('#mash').show().text(' X Sorry no go! X').css('background', '#FA3300');

I want to make a star rating system in html with checkboxes. When a checkbox is checked, the previous are checked and the others are unchecked.
The result will be POSTed to my php code backend.
Here's my current html:
<span class="star-rating">
<!--RADIO 1-->
<input type='checkbox' class="radio_item" value="1" name="item" id="radio1">
<label class="label_item" for="radio1"> <img src="label.png" style="width:30px;height:28px"> </label>
<!--RADIO 2-->
<input type='checkbox' class="radio_item" value="2" name="item2" id="radio2">
<label class="label_item" for="radio2"> <img src="label.png" style="width:30px;height:28px"> </label>
<!--RADIO 3-->
<input type='checkbox' class="radio_item" value="3" name="item3" id="radio3">
<label class="label_item" for="radio3"> <img src="label.png" style="width:30px;height:28px"> </label>
<!--RADIO 4-->
<input type='checkbox' class="radio_item" value="4" name="item4" id="radio4">
<label class="label_item" for="radio4"> <img src="label.png" style="width:30px;height:28px"> </label>
<!--RADIO 5-->
<input type='checkbox' class="radio_item" value="5" name="item5" id="radio5">
<label class="label_item" for="radio5"> <img src="label.png" style="width:30px;height:28px"> </label>
</span>
Include Jquery in your html and this simple javascript code might do just what you want.
$('.star-rating input').click( function(){
starvalue = $(this).attr('value');
// iterate through the checkboxes and check those with values lower than or equal to the one you selected. Uncheck any other.
for(i=0; i<=5; i++){
if (i <= starvalue){
$("#radio" + i).prop('checked', true);
} else {
$("#radio" + i).prop('checked', false);
}
}
});
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<span class="star-rating">
<!--RADIO 1-->
<input type='checkbox' class="radio_item" value="1" name="item" id="radio1">
<label class="label_item" for="radio1"> ☆ </label>
<!--RADIO 2-->
<input type='checkbox' class="radio_item" value="2" name="item2" id="radio2">
<label class="label_item" for="radio2"> ☆ </label>
<!--RADIO 3-->
<input type='checkbox' class="radio_item" value="3" name="item3" id="radio3">
<label class="label_item" for="radio3"> ☆ </label>
<!--RADIO 4-->
<input type='checkbox' class="radio_item" value="4" name="item4" id="radio4">
<label class="label_item" for="radio4"> ☆ </label>
<!--RADIO 5-->
<input type='checkbox' class="radio_item" value="5" name="item5" id="radio5">
<label class="label_item" for="radio5"> ☆ </label>
</span>
Obs: The html code is the same as yours. I've just replaced the images by stars as the links were broken.
Obs2: When you post this to your php, you will receive all checked inputs. Your php code will have to be smart and take the highest value it receives. This should not be difficult.
Obs3: The stars should behave as radio-buttons and not checkboxes. The workaround from Obs2 means that your backend code has too much knowledge of what is happening on the interface. This is a more advanced tip, but take that in consideration in the future.
EXTRA
To include this code in your app, you have some options:
OPTION 1 (jQuery from google CDN and javascript code on script tag)
Put this in your html:
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.4/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script>
$('.star-rating input').click( function(){
starvalue = $(this).attr('value');
// iterate through the checkboxes and check those with values lower than or equal to the one you selected. Uncheck any other.
for(i=0; i<=5; i++){
if (i <= starvalue){
$("#radio" + i).prop('checked', true);
} else {
$("#radio" + i).prop('checked', false);
}
}
});
</script>
OPTION 2 (better: jQuery from CDN and javascript file included with php):
Include jQuery as above and put the javascript code in a file: star_rating.js, then include that file with php include command.
I have a php form (code to follow) with a submit button that runs JSON-events.php as its action (method = POST). In the JSON-events code I am testing whether the form has been submitted using if (!empty($_POST)). My issue is that the JSON-events code doesnt seem to be recognising $_POST.

and here is the top part of the JSON...
if (!empty($_POST)) {
any help very much appreciated
empty() will work if $_POST does not have any values (Empty array), but in your case when you submit without any values still you get an array like below and it's not empty:
Array
(
[searchlat] =>
[searchlong] =>
[search] => Submit Query
)
empty() will return true only if $_POST returns
Array (
)
But it's not going to happen as every form will have one Sumbit button.
Just use
if($_POST) {
//php code
}
It will solve your problem.
Learn more about empty() by visiting http://php.net/manual/en/function.empty.php
Do not use
if (!empty($_POST)) {
to check if there is a post done use this:
if( $_SERVER['REQUEST_METHOD'] == 'POST') {
Conditions that you can use with $_POST
if(count($_POST)>0){
//...
}
if(isset($_POST['field_name'])){
//...
}
if( $_SERVER['REQUEST_METHOD'] == 'POST') {
//..
}
Try this
if(!empty($_POST['search']) && isset($_POST['search']))
much better to check for an actual value in the $_POST array. Eg.
if (!empty($_POST['search']))
Using empty() will fail if value 0 is posted
So it is better to use
isset($_POST['FIELD_NAME'])
I have a submission form with three of them
two of them are okay which I use one ID for all the value that going to be submit
but one of them which I'm struggling now is the one with all different values of course and the selection form also with different ID which made me confuse how can I echo it.
<form action="" method="post">
<div data-role="fieldcontain">
<fieldset data-role="controlgroup" data-type="horizontal" >
<legend>เลือกช่อง</legend>
<input type="radio" name="radio-choice-1" id="radio-choice-1" value="ch41" checked="checked" />
<label for="radio-choice-1">number 1</label>
<input type="radio" name="radio-choice-1" id="radio-choice-2" value="ch80" />
<label for="radio-choice-2">number 2</label>
<input type="radio" name="radio-choice-1" id="radio-choice-3" value="ch44" />
<label for="radio-choice-3>"number 3</label>
<input type="radio" name="radio-choice-1" id="radio-choice-4" value="ch42" />
<label for="radio-choice-4">number 4</label>
<input type="radio" name="radio-choice-1" id="radio-choice-5" value="ch83" />
<label for="radio-choice-5">number 5</label>
</fieldset>
</div>
</form>
and here is what I'm trying to echo
<video width="5%" height="5%" src="http://mydomain:<?php echo $_POST["radio-choice-1"]; ?>-<?php echo $_POST["date"]; ?>-<?php echo $_POST["time"]; ?>" alt="" controls="" tabindex="0">
so the problem is on the "radio-choice-#"
since it has 5 numbers on the ID
here is the example
<input type="radio" name="radio-choice-1" id="radio-choice-2" value="ch80" />
<label for="radio-choice-2">number 2</label>
<input type="radio" name="radio-choice-1" id="radio-choice-3" value="ch44" />
<label for="radio-choice-3>"number 3</label>
<input type="radio" name="radio-choice-1" id="radio-choice-4" value="ch42" />
<label for="radio-choice-4">number 4</label>
<input type="radio" name="radio-choice-1" id="radio-choice-5" value="ch83" />
<label for="radio-choice-5">number 5</label>
so if they choose menu number 5
I want to echo here
<video width="5%" height="5%" src="http://mydomain:<?php echo $_POST["the value of number 5"]; ?">
Your code for actually getting the value from the radio button was already correct. Here is something you could use to keep data more organized and be able to get the 'page' number you're on.
<?php
$items = array('ch41', 'ch80', 'ch44', 'ch42', 'ch83');
$page = array_search((empty($_POST['choice']) ? 'ch41' : $_POST['choice']), $items) + 1; // Change 'ch41' to whatever the default page is
// To name the labels, you can add keys for your values like so:
$items = array('home' => 'ch41', 'page' => 'ch80', 'channel' => 'ch44', 'news' => 'ch42', 'contact' => 'ch83');
$page = (empty($_POST['choice']) ? 'home' : array_search($_POST['choice'], $items)); // Replace 'home' with whatever the default page is
// Then replace the <?= $key + 1 ?> below with just <?= $key ?>
?>
You are currently on page <?= $page ?>.
<form action="" method="post">
<div data-role="fieldcontain">
<fieldset data-role="controlgroup" data-type="horizontal" >
<legend>เลือกช่อง</legend>
<?php foreach ($items as $key => $value): ?>
<input type="radio" name="choice" id="radio-choice-<?= $key ?>" value="<?= $value ?>"<?= $key === $_POST['choice'] ? ' checked="checked"' : '' ?> />
<label for="radio-choice-<?= $key ?>">number <?= $key + 1 ?></label>
<?php endforeach; ?>
</fieldset>
</div>
</form>
A rough example. You can add additional channels to the $items array. It will default to page 1 and automatically check the radio button for the page you're currently viewing. I hope this is what you wanted.
