Harold,
As I understand you have the textbox with user id and a few checkboxes.
Then you want them in one database table as you described.
For this you need to create a form which will submit the data to the
script:
<form action="myscript.php" method="post">
User: <input name="user_id"><br>
Options:<br>
<input type=checkbox name=skill04/>Ad Design<br>
<input type=checkbox name=skill06/>ASP<br>
....
</form>
The myscript.php should get values from the $_POST array and write to
the database using INSERT SQL statement. It may look like this:
<?php
if ('POST' == $_SERVER['REQUEST_METHOD']) {
$cn = mysql_connect('host', 'login', 'password');
mysql_select_db('database', $cn);
$user_id = $_POST['user_id'];
unset($_POST['user_id']);
foreach ($_POST as $key => $value) {
mysql_query('INSERT INTO table VALUES (' . (int)$user_id .', ' .
(int)substr($key, 5) .')');
}
}
?>
Please note that I did not test this code and it shows only concept.
Please check the PHP's manual about used functions and read about SQL
Injection vulnerability (you can find a lot about it on Google) before
writing actual application.
Sincerely,
Alexander
