Question

I have a simple contact form with a checkbox, once valid and submitted I echo out the results of the form. I would like the checkbox item to return YES if checked and NO if blank.

Here is my snippet:

 $subject = "Website Contact Form Enquiry";

//If the form is submitted
if(isset($_POST['submit'])) {

    //Check to make sure that the name field is not empty
    if(trim($_POST['contactname']) == '') {
        $hasError = true;
    } else {
        $name = trim($_POST['contactname']);
    }

    //Check to make sure sure that a valid email address is submitted
    if(trim($_POST['email']) == '')  {
        $hasError = true;
    } else if (!eregi("^[A-Z0-9._%-]+@[A-Z0-9._%-]+\.[A-Z]{2,4}$", trim($_POST['email']))) {
        $hasError = true;
    } else {
        $email = trim($_POST['email']);
    }

    //Check to make sure comments were entered
    if(trim($_POST['message']) == '') {
        $hasError = true;
    } else {
        if(function_exists('stripslashes')) {
            $comments = stripslashes(trim($_POST['message']));
        } else {
            $comments = trim($_POST['message']);
        }
    }

    if(isset($_POST['tour']) &&
       $_POST['tour'] == 'yes')
    {
        $tour = true;
    }
    else
    {
        $tour = false;
    } 

    //If there is no error, send the email
    if(!isset($hasError)) {
        $emailTo = '[e-mail]'; //Put your own email address here
        $body = "Name: $name \n\nEmail: $email \n\nComments:\n $comments";
        $headers = 'From: My Site <'.$emailTo.'>' . "\r\n" . 'Reply-To: ' . $email;

        mail($emailTo, $subject, $body, $headers);
        $emailSent = true;

    }
}

Heres the echo

        <?php if(isset($emailSent) && $emailSent == true) { //If email is sent ?>
        <div id="sadhu">
        <p class="general_site">Name:</p><p class="general_siter"><strong><?php echo $name;?></strong></p>
        <p class="general_site">Email:</p><p class="general_siter"><strong><?php echo $email;?></strong></p>
        <p class="general_site">Message:</p><p class="general_siter"><strong><?php echo $comments;?></strong></p>
        <p class="general_site">Tour:</p><p class="general_siter"><strong><?php echo $tour;?></strong></p>
        </div>
        <?php } ?>

I think you could do (but i’m guessing because it’s not clear what element is the checkbox):

if(isset($_POST['tour']) &&
   $_POST['tour'] == 'yes')
{
    $tour = 'Yes';
}
else
{
    $tour = 'No';
} 

In you case you echo 1 because you are echoing true whic is converted to 1 or false which is converted to 0
