Question

a nice member here helped me set up a multiple checkbox example that stores the data to be shown in a div. However, when I try to do multiple of these, they interlap with each other and show the same data in the divs even when I changed variables.

I set up a simple example here:

Thank you for your time everyone 🙂

Answer 1

That’s because you’re using the same selector in both event handlers: input[type="checkbox"]:checked

This will select all checked checkbox inputs in the page.

You should instead use input[name="car[]"]:checked and input[name="phone[]"]:checked
to select only the inputs with the given name, each time.
