Radio buttons anf IF statements

[Fire Juggler]

On a form, i have
<label><input name="radiogrou p" type="radio" value="Technica l">
Technical</label>
<label><input name="radiogrou p" type="radio" value="Admin">
Administrative</label>
<label><input name="radiogrou p" type="radio" value="Site">
Web-Site</label>
<label><input name="radiogrou p" type="radio" value="General"
checked>
General</font></dd></label>

then on another form i want an if statement
like
if ($radiogroup==" Admin")
{
$contact="email address";
$subject="subje ct"l
else
{
$contact="anoth eremailaddress" ;
$subject="anoth ersubject";

Is this correct, or how do i do an if statement including depending on what
radio button is checked?

thanks

It's not portable since you're assuming that form variables will be
imported as local variables. which is often not the case. Also, a switch
normally provides clearer code in situations like this.

<?

switch($_POST['radiogroup']){ // Use $_GET if method="get"
case 'Admin':
$contact=...... ;
$subject=...... ;
break;

case 'Site':
$contact=...... ;
$subject=...... ;
break;

case 'General':
$contact=...... ;
$subject=...... ;

default:
$contact='';
$subject='';
}

?>
