I have successfully brought them into the form part. But when I send the e-mail I am getting the last name with 'No'. No matter if I checked it or not. Any suggestions?
Here is my code.
this is the part that doesn't work right.
$file = 'people.txt';
$lines = file($file);
foreach ($lines as $value => $line) {
$names = strtok($line, ' ');
//echo "<input type='checkbox' name=\'names[]\' value=\'y\'> $line<br />\n";
//echo "$line<br>";
$names = ($_POST['names'])? "$line: Yes":"$line: No";
//I have tried the following way too. But haven't had any success.
//if ($_POST['names']=='on'){
// echo "{$line}: Yes";
//}
//else {
//echo "{$line}: No";
//}
}
this is the part that does work
$file = 'people.txt';
$lines = file($file);
foreach ($lines as $value => $line) {
$names = strtok($line, ' ');
echo "<input type='checkbox' name=\'names[]\' value=\'{$names}\'> $line<br />\n";
}
Can this be done? or am I just bangin my head against the wall here.

[edit reason] No personal emails, thanks. [/edit]
echo '<pre>'.htmlentities(var_export($_REQUEST, true)).'</pre>';
Having said that, i see in your form processing script you use names with spaces replaced by _s:
$i = trim(str_replace(" ", "_", $i));
Whereas in your form generation script you use "names[]" for field names (your version) or names with embedded spaces (andrewsmd's version):
$line = trim($line);
echo "<input type='checkbox' name='{$line}'> $line<br />\n";
I'd follow andrewsmd's recommendation and use the employee name with embedded _s but you need to use the same logic in both parts. Your best bet is to write a separate function to generate the field name from the employee name and call that in your scripts:
// Returns employee name converted to a value suitable for use as a form field name.
function convertEmployeeNameToFieldName($employeeName) {
return str_replace(' ', '_', trim($employeeName));
}
Then use the same function in both parts of your script:
foreach($lines as $employeeName){
$fieldName = convertEmployeeNameToFieldName($employeeName);
if(isset($_POST[$fieldName]))
echo("yes $i<br>");
else
echo("no $i<br>");
}
And:
foreach($lines as $employeeName) {
$fieldName = convertEmployeeNameToFieldName($employeeName);
echo "<input type='checkbox' name=\'$fieldName\'> $employeeName<br />\n";
}
Hope this helps... It can never be stressed enough how important it is to break down your code into functions (with descriptive names), especially for logic that is used in multiple places. It'll save you a lot of headaches in the long run. :)
andrewsmd your corrections to my code work like you said it places it into the existing page. But for some reason it doesn't pass on to the e-mail. Check out the following code and see if you can see what I am doing wrong. Maybe I do need to add a function like idfer said. It doesn't seem like it should be a difficult fix. But these small things never do huh!
The current code. Thanks for all your help.

I tried sending the $mail variable both ways each does send. I guess I should have clarified. The part that it doesn't send in to the e-mail is the $msg variable. This is the part that the names are involved with. I get the $email and $question variables to send what is in there fields.
I placed $employeeName, and $fieldName into the $msg and get nothing in return. I think I need to incorporate the foreach statement but not sure how to make $msg pick up the names and there selected state.
Does that make sense?
Thanks again for the help.
I would like the names to come back with either yes or no. Not sure if in the text area you mean the actual field? The form right now sends anything back that I type in there.
Thanks for your help.

On my original code after the form was filled out and sent it was replaced by the echo statements Saying thank you. Is that possible to get back. Sorry to be such a pain.
Not sure why but instead of getting even the last name in the list like I used to I get a 1 in return to the email.
I saw that andrewsmd used a var_dump. I think in the code below I messed around with var_export. Still get the same results. Not sure which is better to use for this project? On screen when you send the form after filling it out it states
" Employee Participation = E-mail = yourname@email.com Additional Employees = ".
But it skips adding in the Employee Participation (the list of names). That is where either var_dump or var_export should come into to play. Correct?
Not sure if I have that portion of the code set up correctly to pass on this info into the e-mail. Any suggestions?
Here is my code:

way simpler than how I wrote it! That is awesome. Thanks a bunch.
So the output is working correctly. Is there a way for me to bring in the names to the mailsent area? Right now it still skips that part when you receive an e-mail from the form.
// the email subject ( modify it as you wish )
$subject = 'Verification form' ;
$msg = "\n\n\nE-mail = $email \n\nAdditional Employees = $question \n\n ";
foreach($lines as $employeeName){
$fieldName = convertEmployeeNameToFieldName($employeeName);
if(isset($_POST[$fieldName]))
$msg .= ("$employeeName : Yes\n");
else
$msg.=("$employeeName : No\n");
}//foreach
$mailsent = mail("$to,$email", $subject, $msg, $headers);
if ($mailsent) {
I guess I tried that earlier but that was before everything was in isset($_POST). So it wouldn't return things.
Now all is well and I get my list too. Thanks so much for your patience with me. I still have a lot to learn.
