rewrite this code

[Princeton]

is there an easier / more productive way to rewrite this code:

PHP Code:

$radio6CHECKED =  ($newpost['radio2']=='1')? HTML_CHECKED: ""; 
     $radio7CHECKED =  ($newpost['radio2']=='2')? HTML_CHECKED: ""; 
     $radio8CHECKED = ($newpost['radio2']=='3')? HTML_CHECKED: ""; 
     $radio9CHECKED = ($newpost['radio2']=='4')? HTML_CHECKED: ""; 
     $radio10CHECKED = ($newpost['radio2']=='5')? HTML_CHECKED: ""; 


thank you

PHP Code:

switch($newpost['radio2']) {
    
    case 1:
        $radio6CHECKED = HTML_CHECKED;
        break;
    case 2:
        $radio7CHECKED = HTML_CHECKED;
        break;
    case 3:
        $radio8CHECKED = HTML_CHECKED;
        break;
    case 4:
        $radio9CHECKED = HTML_CHECKED;
        break;
    case 5:
        $radio10CHECKED = HTML_CHECKED;
        break;
} 


Maynot be more productive, but its another way none the less.

LOL
thank you NTLDR ... I use switch/case statement but, I'm looking for something shorter/simpler.

hmm as you use a follow up counter method, this should work also:

PHP Code:

eval('$radio' . (5 + $newpost['radio2'])  . 'CHECKED = HTML_CHECKED;');

I gotta check that out ... thank you.:up:

Xenon,
I'm not having any luck with the code. It's not recognizing which radio button was clicked.

[Xenon]

hmm, wierd, i think it should work...

[Princeton]

I'll rephrase that ... on preview it doesn't recognize which radio was clicked

[Xenon]

ahh

that would expalin it
i've also had problems with the checked boxes and preview..
