boolean check boxes mysql/php

[t1d2c3]

Basically i need to make the page display the data from one of my tables and then show the boolean as the end of each row as a check box, can someone please show me how this is done?

if in your table you have a column with true or false written in it you could do something like this :
if ($yourValue == "true") {
<input type="checkbox" name="checkbox" id="checkbox1" value="$yourValue" checked />
}
else {
<input type="checkbox" name="checkbox" id="checkbox1" value="$yourValue" />
}

I'd use the proper attribute of checked="checked" if you're going to go for the (xml) self closing tags.

Since it's going to be executed in a loop, I'd lose the id or make sure they are unique if you need them.

In your table you can use a true boolean instead of a string. just test it with if ...
