    <p>I've set up my code so that it would require all the fields within the form, but for some reason it's only applying to input types of text, email, and password. So my question is how can I get the radio buttons, select boxes, and checkbox to also be required fields within the form? Here's my code:</p> <pre><code>&lt;form action="" method="post"&gt; &lt;ul id="register"&gt; &lt;li&gt; &lt;input type="text" name="first_name" placeholder="First Name"&gt; &lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt; &lt;input type="text" name="last_name" placeholder="Last Name"&gt; &lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt; &lt;input type="email" name="email" placeholder="Email"&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt; &lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt; &lt;input type="password" name="password" placeholder="Password"&gt; &lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt; &lt;input type="radio" name="sex" value="male"&gt;Male &lt;input type="radio" name="sex" value="female"&gt;Female &lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt; Birthday: &lt;select name="month"&gt; &lt;option value="January"&gt;January&lt;/option&gt; //all the other month options &lt;/select&gt; &lt;select name="day"&gt; &lt;option value="1"&gt;1&lt;/option&gt; //all the other days of the month &lt;/select&gt; &lt;select name="year"&gt; &lt;option value="2013"&gt;2013&lt;/option&gt; //ton of year options here &lt;/select&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt; &lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt; &lt;input type="checkbox" name="terms_of_service" value="termsofservice"&gt;Terms of Service&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt; &lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt; &lt;input type="submit" name="registrationform" value="Sign up"&gt; &lt;/li&gt; &lt;/ul&gt; &lt;/form&gt; &lt;?php if (empty($_POST) === false) { $required_fields = array('first_name', 'last_name', 'email', 'password', 'sex', 'birthday', 'terms_of_service'); foreach ($_POST as $key=&gt;$value) { if (empty($value) &amp;&amp; in_array($key, $required_fields) === true) { $errors[] = 'You didn\'t fill in all of the categories.'; break 1; } } } print_r($errors); ?&gt; </code></pre>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
