Question

I have this code here:

while ($record = mysql_fetch_array($itemavailablequeryres))
{
echo "
<tr>
<td>$record['itemid']</td>
<td>$record['code']</td>
<td>$record['name']</td>
<td><input type='checkbox' name='input'></td>
</tr> ";
}

Now the output in HTML would be:

                <tr>
                    <td>1</td>
                    <td>105</td>
                    <td>t-racks</td>
                    <td>Mic splitter</td>
                    <td><input type='checkbox' name='input'></td>
                </tr>

For each record of the database.

How can I implement a counter so that the input name will be +1 after each record?

So the output will be:

<tr>
...
<td><input type='checkbox' name='input1'></td>
...
</tr>
<tr>
...
<td><input type='checkbox' name='input2'></td>
...
</tr>
<tr>
...
<td><input type='checkbox' name='input3'></td>
...
</tr>
<tr>
...
<td><input type='checkbox' name='input4'></td>
...
</tr>

etc, depending on how many records are fetched.

Answer 1

You can create an array of checkboxes

<td><input type='checkbox' name='input[]'></td>

If you still want to do with the counter

you could do like this

$row =1;
while ($record = mysql_fetch_array($itemavailablequeryres))
{
   echo "
    <tr>
    <td>$record['itemid']</td>
    <td>$record['code']</td>
    <td>$record['name']</td>
    <td><input type='checkbox' name='input{$row}' ></td>
    </tr> ";
    $row++;
}
