How to reload form

[Dusto]

Hi All
I am creating a simple web site which will display user ads, so I have some forms they submit, here is a snippet of the code:

<div class="createlisting">

<div class="clinput">
Ad Title... (up to 100 characters)<br>
<?php
print '<input type="text" name="item_title"';
print s_att("item_title","value",100);
if (isset($err["item_title_err"]))
{print ' class="err"> '.$err["item_title_err"];}
else
{print '>';}
?>
<br>
</div>

I need to get users to agree to my terms and conditions, so something like:

if //checkbox they can click to agree else // if unchecked, reload the same form...
Not sure how to do this, can anyome help?

That is why people use form classes / functions/ whatever

Then you can do stuff like

$form->set('checkbox','mycheckbox','myvalue',ISSET);

if($form->validate()){

// form validates

} else {

$form->show();

}

Otherwise you have to cede like

if(!empty($_POST['myform'])){

array_push($aErrors,'mycheckbox');

}

// etc


if(sizeof($aErors)){

inlcude('form.php');

} else {

// form validates

}


form.php

<input type="checkbox" name="mycheckbox">
<?php if(isset($aErrors['mycheckbox'])){

echo 'Whoops';

}?>
etc

[CODE]$form->set('checkbox','mycheckbox','myvalue',ISSET);

So what's your favorite form class?

Classes are irrelevant to this situation. In fact classes should never be used with PHP. They offer very few advantages and make code totally obscure. That is not welcome and should be avoided at all costs in any validation action.

If you need to use classes you should not be using a script language anyway.

I dont agree. Classes are actually great. They make code much more reliable and maintainable.
