Quick help with email checkboxes!

Hi all,

I'm new to this site and I have a quick question.
I've had an email contact form for some time and just added some checkboxes. The code works great when I have one or more checkboxes selected. Funny thing is when no checkboxes are selected and I submit the form I get this error:

Warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in /home/crikle/public_html/allthatmatters/mailer.php on line 11

I sure its a simple fix that is needed but I can't get my head around this one.
It looks like the foreach() command is missing something but what?
Help.

My code is this:

<?php
if(isset($_POST['submit'])) {


$to = "goodguy@btinternet.com";
$subject = "Form";
$name_field = $_POST['name'];
$email_field = $_POST['email'];
$message = $_POST['message'];

foreach($_POST['check'] as $value) {

$check_msg .= "Checked: $value\n";

}


$body = "From: $name_field\n E-Mail: $email_field\n Message: $message\n $check_msg";


echo "Data has been submitted to $to!";
mail($to, $subject, $body);


} else {

echo "failed";

}
?>

 

Hello,

When no checkboxes are selected $_POST['check'] doesn't exist, so so there is no array which causes an error.

Try:

if( isset($_POST['check']) ) {
	foreach($_POST['check'] as $value) {
		$check_msg .= "Checked: $value\n";
	}
}

PHP:

That makes sure $_POST['check'] exists before letting foreach use it.

This worked, thanks.
if isset was what I needed.
