    • Use radio instead of checkbox if you want one option to be selected
    • Do not use PHP_SELF, it is a security hole. Instead: <form action="">
    • Access the value with $_POST['korting']

    To sum up all values, make your form like this:

    <input type="checkbox" name="korting[]" value="15" /> Student 15% <br/>
<input type="checkbox" name="korting[]" value= "10"  /> Senior 10% <br/>
<input type="checkbox" name="korting[]" value= "5" /> klant 5% <br/>

    and the processing like that:

    <?php
$korting = 0;
if (isset($_POST['korting']) && is_array($_POST['korting'])) {
  $korting = array_sum($_POST['korting']);
}
echo 'Korting is ' . $korting . '%';
?>
