radio buttons

[Ken]

How can I interface radio buttons with PHP?

I would like to select one of several choices and use the variable in PHP.
Only one choice per group is allowed.

<form name="state" method="post" action="next_file.php">
<table border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" width=450
align=center><tr><td>

<input TYPE="radio" NAME="select_state"
value="illinois"></td><td>Illinois</td></tr>

<tr><td><input TYPE="radio" NAME="select_state" value="Michigan"
CHECKED></td><td>Michigan</td></table>

<input type=button value='Continue' onClick='javascript:sign_in()></td></tr>

<?PHP
$_SESSION{'state'] = $select_state; does not work.

?>

Thanks for the help.

<?PHP
$_SESSION{'state'] = $select_state; does not work.

Use $_POST['select_state'] instead of $select_state.

Also, $_SESSION{'state'] should be $_SESSION['state'].

I tried that before I wrote to the board, it did not work.

Now it does. Must of had a error in the script.

Feeling small right now!!
