  I have a form that i would like to make all aspect hidden except for the submit button. The problem is that one of the inputs is supposed to be a checkbox. I need it always "checked", but of course its going to be hidden. The area for adding the username, i will probably just hardcode. Any tips?
  
  

  Code

  echo "<form action=\"index.php?module=statistics&amp;func=report\" method=\"post\" enctype=\"application/x-www-form-urlencoded\"><div><input type=\"hidden\" name=\"authid\" value=\"ed31716ecec701050155238010327d32\" /><tr><td>&nbsp</td></tr><tr><td>Statistics Table: <select name=\"ta\" id=\"ta\" size=\"1\" tabindex=\"1\"><option value=\"details\" selected=\"selected\">Details</option><option value=\"archive\">Archive</option><option value=\"summary\">Summary</option></select></td></tr><tr><td> Start Date: <input type=\"text\" name=\"start\" id=\"start\" value=\"2004-12-27\" size=\"16\" maxlength=\"64\" tabindex=\"2\" /> End Date: <input type=\"text\" name=\"end\" id=\"end\" value=\"2005-04-27\" size=\"16\" maxlength=\"64\" tabindex=\"3\" />\n";
  echo "<INPUT id=\"authid\" type=\"hidden\" value=\"".pnSecGenAuthKey()."\" name=\"authid\">\n";
  echo "<INPUT id=\"ud\" type=\"hidden\" value=\"1\">\n";
  echo "<input type=\"checkbox\" name=\"ud\" id=\"ud\" value=\"1\" tabindex=\"1\" />\n";
  echo "<input type=\"text\" name=\"udu\" id=\"udu\" value=\"every\" size=\"16\" maxlength=\"64\" tabindex=\"2\" />\n";
  echo "<INPUT type=\"submit\" value=\"Submit\"></FORM>\n";

  
  
  EDIT: Sure wish the code wasnt so messed up like that, would be easier to read.

  Why do you need the checkbox? Why not just a hidden input to pass the values?

  <INPUT id=\"ud\" type=\"hidden\" value=\"1\">

  
  
  But that didnt seem to work. I dont know. i have made some changes since then, can try it again.

  When you have a checkbox the data passed will just be a value, anyway, so you should be able to use a hidden field just the same. I noticed that you don't have a name for the hidden field, which could also be a problem.

  Yes, you need the name parameter.
  
  the id parameter is useful when you want to be accesible about your forms.
  
  i.e.
  
  <label for="uname">Username:</label>

  I know how to get todays date in PHP, but how would i do get the date X days ago. Lets say i want the "start date" to be 90 days before the "end date", which would be today.
