Hi people,

I am new to PHP and slowly learning how it all works,

At the moment I am trying to edit a script.

The current code shows a checkbox and when ticketed it is set to work the process and so on and so fourth...

<td><input type='checkbox' name='AllowTip' value='yes' <?php ($this->options['AllowTip'] == true) echo "checked"; ?> /> Yes</td>

What I would like to do is change this code so you cannot see the checkbox and have it perminatly set to Yes.

I know this may sound basic but I would gratefully appreciate any help.

thanks.

instead of the checkbox use

type="hidden" value="yes"

lol of course. Thank you for the help, its truly appreciate

Edit: Chris beat me to it :P

What you are trying to do is kind of a hack, if the value is always yes then there is no need to use it at all. For example, these two blocks of code are equivalent if allowtip is always yes:

PHP Code:

if($_POST['AllowTip'] == 'yes')
{
     echo 'foo';
} 


PHP Code:

echo 'foo'; 


I realize however that it is probably much easier to just hard code this value into the HTML code, so what you can do is make it into a hidden field with a value of 'yes':

<input type="hidden" name="AllowTip" value="yes" />

Techincally, a user can still change the value of this field by modifying the source. If it is very important that this value be set to yes then I suggest you enforce it server side (in your PHP code).
