    <p>I'm using a table to update a database, the table has 264 checkboxes which can be checked and unchecked then updated on the database. </p> <p>I'm doing this by posting data on the form, using a while loop to set all fields to blank ( the value of the checkbox and the textarea value) for each respective field, then using a foreach loop to update each row in the database with the value of the checkbox. </p> <p>Now, what I want to do is add the textarea value for each ticked checkbox into the database as well, what i cant figure out is how to do this? </p> <p>This is my update code:</p> <pre><code>if (isset($_POST["update"])) { $seolistRes2 = mysql_query($seolistQ) or die(mysql_error()); while ($seolistRow2 = mysql_fetch_array($seolistRes2)) { $wsID1 = $seolistRow2["worksheetID"]; $updateWSQ2 = "UPDATE seo_work SET taskValue=0, taskInfo='' WHERE worksheetID=$wsID1 AND userID=$userID"; mysql_query($updateWSQ2) or die(mysql_error()); } $item = $_POST; foreach($item as $key =&gt; $value) { $wsID = str_replace("checkbox","",$key); if (is_numeric($wsID)) { $updateWSQ = "UPDATE seo_work SET taskValue=$value taskInfo=$value WHERE worksheetID=$wsID AND userID=$userID"; mysql_query($updateWSQ) or die(mysql_error()); header("Location: worksheet.php?y=".$seoworkyear."&amp;userID=$userID&amp;action=success"); } } </code></pre> <p>}</p> <p>This is checkbox and textarea code: (please note this is within a form)</p> <pre><code>$currentTask = ''; echo "&lt;tr class='tr'&gt;"; while ($seolistRow = mysql_fetch_array($seolistRes)) { $taskValue = $seolistRow["taskValue"]; $worksheetID = $seolistRow["worksheetID"]; $taskName = $seolistRow["taskName"]; $taskInfo = $seolistRow["taskInfo"]; if ($taskValue == 1) { $taskDone = "&lt;input type='checkbox' value='1' class='checkbox' name='checkbox".$worksheetID."' id=checkbox'".$worksheetID."' checked='checked' /&gt;". "&lt;textarea class='textarea' name='textarea".$worksheetID."' id=textarea'".$worksheetID."'&gt;" . $taskInfo . "&lt;/textarea&gt;"; } else { $taskDone = "&lt;input type='checkbox' value='1' class='checkbox' name='checkbox".$worksheetID."' id='checkbox".$worksheetID."' /&gt;".

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.
