how to create list of people with Yes/No radio buttons for each, then process form

[NotGiven]

I have a database result set with names, IDfield and a Y/N field.

How do I create the radio buttons that can then be processed easily using an
array (I assume) with an easy-to-loop-through structure?

The form would look like:

Joe Smith O[Y] O[N]
Karen Smith O[Y] O[N]
....

Any ideas are appreciated!

That's more code than I want to write here also your form structure
would probably differ from mine, but I can say you got the general idea
there. Here is a general idea of how the code goes:

General structure would be
read in the data...
- set counter to 0
- select the records
- loop through the record with mysql_fetch_arr ay
- - increment counter
- - Read in record ID, Name and Yes/No response to thier respective
arrays (i.e. $name[] = $items['name']; $recordid =
$items['recordid'];)

Display the HTML, (inside use a PHP script to create the inputs)
- Using a loop read in the array values as inputs up to the counter
- - for input names use the array ID (i.e. ..name="name[]"> )
- (don't forget to include the array counter and the record ID array
as 'hidden' values.)
- submit

Reading back in the submitted form
- read through arrays
- - Do SQL updates with array data

Hope that helps!
