so if the name of radio is "priority" then it needs not be checked for its
value other than it being empty? or could i say put that one of those is
defaulted to checked...
<input type="radio" value="this is a general post?" checked>this is a
general post
.....
then do in the php script something like:
<?php
if(!empty($priority)) {
insert into table values(NULL, '$name', '$post',
'$priority')")||die(mysql_error());
else {
?>
<html>
<head>
<title>There was an error in your form submission</title>
</head>
<body>
there was an error in your submitted form:
you didnt choose a message priority. <a href="postprayer.htm">click here</a>
to go back to the form to re-enter your post.
</body>
</html>
<?php
}
//finnish script here..
?>
