Php - testing if a radio button is selected and get the value - php

Question

I'm using php. I'd like to know how can I test if a radio button is selected and get the value? i can test if the radio button is selected but i cannot get the value.
I created a button to test this in my form. First I select a radio button, then i click on the button and it must display a message that says which value i selected and put this value into a variable. In order to test if a radio button is selected i did like this:
$selected_radio=$_POST['SINGLE_' . $question->id . $multi_name_adjust . ''];
if ($selected_radio = 'checked'){}
Thanks

Answer 1

It's pretty simple, take a look at the code below:
The form:
<form action="result.php" method="post">
Answer 1 <input type="radio" name="ans" value="ans1" /><br />
Answer 2 <input type="radio" name="ans" value="ans2" /><br />
Answer 3 <input type="radio" name="ans" value="ans3" /><br />
Answer 4 <input type="radio" name="ans" value="ans4" /><br />
<input type="submit" value="submit" />
</form>
PHP code:
<?php
$answer = $_POST['ans'];
if ($answer == "ans1") {
echo 'Correct';
}
else {
echo 'Incorrect';
}
?>

Answer 2

A very more efficient way to do this in php:
<form action="#" method="post">
<select name="Color">
<option value="Red">Red</option>
<option value="Green">Green</option>
<option value="Blue">Blue</option>
<option value="Pink">Pink</option>
<option value="Yellow">Yellow</option>
</select>
<input type="submit" name="submit" value="Get Selected Values" />
</form>
<?php
if(isset($_POST['submit'])){
$selected_val = $_POST['Color']; // Storing Selected Value In Variable
echo "You have selected :" .$selected_val; // Displaying Selected Value
}
?>
and for check boxes multiple choice:
<form action="#" method="post">
<select name="Color[]" multiple> // Initializing Name With An Array
<option value="Red">Red</option>
<option value="Green">Green</option>
<option value="Blue">Blue</option>
<option value="Pink">Pink</option>
<option value="Yellow">Yellow</option>
</select>
<input type="submit" name="submit" value="Get Selected Values" />
</form>
<?php
if(isset($_POST['submit'])){
// As output of $_POST['Color'] is an array we have to use foreach Loop to display individual value
foreach ($_POST['Color'] as $select)
{
echo "You have selected :" .$select; // Displaying Selected Value
}
?>

Answer 3

Just simply use isset($_POST['radio']) so that whenever i click any of the radio button, the one that is clicked is set to the post.
<form method="post" action="sample.php">
select sex:
<input type="radio" name="radio" value="male">
<input type="radio" name="radio" value="female">
<input type="submit" value="submit">
</form>
<?php
if (isset($_POST['radio'])){
$Sex = $_POST['radio'];
}
?>

Answer 4

<?php
if (isset($_POST['submit']) and ! empty($_POST['submit'])) {
if (isset($_POST['radio'])) {
$radio_input = $_POST['radio'];
echo $radio_input;
}
} else {
}
?>
<form action="radio.php" method="post">
<input type="radio" name="radio" value="v1"/>
<input type="radio" name="radio" value="v2"/>
<input type="radio" name="radio" value="v3"/>
<input type="radio" name="radio" value="v4"/>
<input type="radio" name="radio" value="v5"/>
<input type= "submit" name="submit"value="submit"/>
</form>

Answer 6

I suggest you do it through the GET request:
for example, index.html:
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.8.3/jquery.min.js"></script>
<form action="result.php" method="post">
Answer 1 <input type="radio" name="ans" value="ans1" /><br />
Answer 2 <input type="radio" name="ans" value="ans2" /><br />
Answer 3 <input type="radio" name="ans" value="ans3" /><br />
Answer 4 <input type="radio" name="ans" value="ans4" /><br />
<input type="button" value="submit" onclick="sendPost()" />
</form>
<script type="text/javascript">
function sendPost(){
var value = $('input[name="ans"]:checked').val();
window.location.href = "sendpost.php?ans="+value;
};
</script>
this is sendpost.php:
<?php
if(isset($_GET["ans"]) AND !empty($_GET["ans"])){
echo $_GET["ans"];
}
?>

my form:
<form method="post" action="radio.php">
select your gender:
<input type="radio" name="radioGender" value="female">
<input type="radio" name="radioGender" value="male">
<input type="submit" name="btnSubmit" value="submit">
</form>
my php:
<?php
if (isset($_POST["btnSubmit"])) {
if (isset($_POST["radioGender"])) {
$answer = $_POST['radioGender'];
if ($answer == "female") {
echo "female";
} else {
echo "male";
}
}else{
echo "please select your gender";
