I am working on a website for a hotel management company. On the portfolio page, I currently have a Google map with all of the hotels pinpointed and a table of the hotels all coming from a database. However, I want a form with checkboxes that correspond to the hotel brands. Selecting a checkbox will show only hotels that are that brand name. I can figure out how to do it with just one brand selected, but not with multiple.
This is the code for the form:
<form>
<div class="form-block">
<input type="checkbox" name="Courtyard" value="true" <?php if (isset($_GET["Courtyard"])) { echo "checked"; } ?> /> Courtyard<br />
<input type="checkbox" name="HolidayInnExpress" value="true" <?php if (isset($_GET["HolidayInnExpress"])) { echo "checked"; } ?> /> Holiday Inn Express<br />
<input type="checkbox" name="BestWestern" value="true" <?php if (isset($_GET["BestWestern"])) { echo "checked"; } ?> /> Best Western<br />
</div>
<div class="form-block">
<input type="checkbox" name="CrownePlaza" value="true" <?php if (isset($_GET["CrownePlaza"])) { echo "checked"; } ?> /> Crowne Plaza<br />
<input type="checkbox" name="HolidayInn" value="true" <?php if (isset($_GET["HolidayInn"])) { echo "checked"; } ?> /> Holiday Inn<br />
<input type="checkbox" name="SpringhillSuites" value="true" <?php if (isset($_GET["SpringhillSuites"])) { echo "checked"; } ?> /> Springhill Suites<br />
</div>
<div class="form-block">
<input type="checkbox" name="HamptonInn" value="true" <?php if (isset($_GET["HamptonInn"])) { echo "checked"; } ?> /> Hampton Inn<br />
<input type="checkbox" name="HomewoodSuites" value="true" <?php if (isset($_GET["HomewoodSuites"])) { echo "checked"; } ?> /> Homewood Suites<br />
<input type="checkbox" name="Independent" value="true" <?php if (isset($_GET["Independent"])) { echo "checked"; } ?> /> Independent Properties<br />
</div>
<button type="submit">Filter</button>
And the MySQL Query to display the table
<?php
if (isset($_GET["BestWestern"])) {
echo "Brand=\"Best Western\"";
}
$result = mysql_query("SELECT Name, City, State, Website FROM markers WHERE Brand LIKE '%' ORDER BY City");
echo "<table border='1'>
<tr>
<th>Hotel Name</th>
<th>City</th>
<th>State</th>
<th>Website</th>
</tr>";
while($row = mysql_fetch_array($result)) {
echo "<tr>";
echo "<td>" . $row['Name'] . "</td>";
echo "<td>" . $row['City'] . "</td>";
echo "<td>" . $row['State'] . "</td>";
echo "<td><a href='" . $row['Website'] . "'>Visit Website</a></td>";
echo "</tr>";
}
echo "</table>";
?>
Any help would be appreciated.
mysql_*
functions in new code. They are no longer maintained and are officially deprecated. See the red box? Learn about prepared statements instead, and use PDO or MySQLi - this article will help you decide which. If you choose PDO, here is a good tutorial. – thaJeztah Feb 13 at 21:11
