Question

I am developing a PHP website which will generate several approval requests.

My approval page has only one form and one save button, and I want to use 2 radio buttons for each request.

Here is a link to how I imagine it to look like: link

On the PHP side I have no problem with generating the form and assigning different names to the radio buttons. My problem is what names I should give to the radio buttons in order for me to be able to associate them to a specific member on the PHP side? Or do I need to set values for the radio buttons?

How would I accomplish this?

If you have an even better solution to handle such a case I am open to that as well.

Thanks

Answer 1

Every User will have a unique user_id,
As you are displaying radiobuttongroup for each other user in the page, and want to access then in php,
The base way to name them in a array with indices as their user_id

<input type="radio" value="1" name="acceptance['uid1']"/>Approve<br />
<input type="radio" value="0" name="acceptance[uid1]"/>Deny

<input type="radio" value="1" name="acceptance['uid2']"/>Approve<br />
<input type="radio" value="0" name="acceptance[uid2]"/>Deny

<input type="radio" value="1" name="acceptance['uid3']"/>Approve<br />
<input type="radio" value="0" name="acceptance[uid3]"/>Deny

in php

foreach($_POST['acceptence'] as $uid=>$acpt)
{
..Do whatever
}

I hope this would help..If something else is needed plz comment..
