Checkbox Modify Length

[prowler]

How do you modify the length of the checkbox field?

I use it on my add page, But when I submit only half the options are visible in the detail page.

I have checked the database and all the options are available.

Is they a field in the database to modify the text length? I have tried the multiselect option and that works fine.

you cant change the length of a checkbox? its jsut a box people tick as yes or no

[Bruceper]

I must not be understanding you, because a checkbox doesn't have a length, it is simply a box that is checked or not.

Can you show your site so we can see what you want to do?

Thanks for the replys,

The add page is here
Add a Listing

and the detail page here
Detail: Toyota MR2 T-Bar

When I am testing the add form, It does not include all the options I tick, On the checkbox.

When you look at the detail page, Its stops at "Metallic Paint" and misses the following options.

Passenger Air-bag
Power Steering
Radio/Cassette
Rear Wash Wipe
Sunroof
Tinted Glass
Tow Bar
Traction Control
Trip Computer

[Bruceper]

I see all those options. What browser (and version) are you using?

[prowler]

I see the options too,

But I don.t see the options below when ticked, Everything works fine if I use the multiselect option but not on the checkbox.

Passenger Air-bag
Power Steering
Radio/Cassette
Rear Wash Wipe
Sunroof
Tinted Glass
Tow Bar
Traction Control
Trip Computer

I am using Vista internet ex 7

Your biggest issue is the name, they are all set to "options[]". For the form to be valid they all need to have their own name.

And even though I didn't see it, according to W3 you have a misplaced form tag Result for http://www.leedsautos.com/add.php - W3C Markup Validator

I have checked the database, and the custom option field is listed.

INSERT INTO `idx_custom_field` VALUES ('options', 'Options', 'CHECKBOX', 'Air Bag\r\nAir Conditioning\r\nAlarm\r\nAlloy Wheels\r\nAnti-Lock Brakes\r\nAnti-Theft Device\r\nCD Player\r\nCentral Locking\r\nCruise Control\r\nElectric Hood\r\nElectric Mirrors\r\nElectric Seats\r\nElectric Windows\r\nFog/Spot Lights\r\nFull Service History\r\nImmobiliser\r\nLeather\r\nMetallic Paint\r\nPassenger Air-bag\r\nPower Steering\r\nRadio/Cassette\r\nRear Wash Wipe\r\nSunroof\r\nTinted Glass\r\nTow Bar\r\nTraction Control\r\nTrip Computer', 0, 0, 0, '', '0', '0', '0');

On the add form the custom options are listed, I ticked the following:

Air Bag
Air Conditioning
Alarm
Alloy Wheels
Anti-Lock Brakes
Anti-Theft Device
CD Player
Central Locking
Cruise Control
Electric Hood
Electric Mirrors
Electric Seats
Electric Windows
Fog/Spot Lights
Full Service History
Immobiliser
Leather
Metallic Paint
Passenger Air-bag
Power Steering
Radio/Cassette
Rear Wash Wipe
Sunroof
Tinted Glass
Tow Bar
Traction Control
Trip Computer

But when I check my listing that I submitted, Its not showing all the options I ticked, Its only showing

Air Bag
Air Conditioning
Alarm
Alloy Wheels
Anti-Lock Brakes
Anti-Theft Device
CD Player
Central Locking
Cruise Control
Electric Hood
Electric Mirrors
Electric Seats
Electric Windows
Fog/Spot Lights

Metallic Paint

I am missing the following options even though I ticked them, Its not listing them.

Passenger Air-bag
Power Steering
Radio/Cassette
Rear Wash Wipe
Sunroof
Tinted Glass
Tow Bar
Traction Control
Trip Computer

I know its down to the checkbox option, Because when I use the multiselect custom field it works fine.

If you check the detail page, You will see it works fine using Multiselect.

As I said earlier, it appears the html is the issue. Check it and clear up the issues that W3 found and that may fix your issues.

[prowler]

Don.t think the html is the issue,

I uploaded a fresh copy of the add.php and add_form.html, And still does the same with the checkboxes. All the other custom fields are working fine.

Not sure what the problem is, Maybe bug who knows?

[Bruceper]

It's not a bug with IndexU, otherwise the add form wouldn't work. It's a bug with your HTML as I've said in my last 3 posts.
