How to get Multiple Values from a foreach loop generated Checkboxes

Question

I am trying to get multiple values from a foreach loop generated check boxes. Please check my codes below and give me some suggestion. Thanks.

View file

<?php foreach ($size_list as $size) { ?>
<label><input name="size_id" type="checkbox" value="<?php echo $size->size_id;?>" />
<?php echo $v_size_list->size;?></label>
<?php } ?>

When i submit this form after selecting multiple checkboxes, i got only the last check box value. But i want all selected check box values. Please give me some suggestion. Thanks

use array like this name="size_id[]"

use change your checkbox name into array and it contation all the checkbox value in array structure which you checked in form

name="size_id[ ]"

<?php foreach ($size_list as $size) { ?>

<label><input name="size_id[]" type="checkbox" value="<?php echo $size->size_id;?>" />
<?php echo $v_size_list->size;?></label>

and get the value by

print_r($_POST['size_id']);

My suggestion is to check this answer: Get $_POST from multiple checkboxes

So your checkboxes name have to be size_id[], and in the controller, where you check the value of the checkbox, you have to loop this with a foreach.

public function posted()
{
    $checkboxes = $this->input->post("size_id");
    foreach($checkboxes as $checkbox)
    {
        // in this loop you can check the value of the selected checkbox
    }
}
