I am not sure how to work with PHP. I am learning...First time using PHP. I am working on a survey form do today. I am using a script that I copied from some site. What it does it writes the inf of a form into a txt file. It works fine . But. some of the questions on the survey have more that one answer (you can check one or more check boxes). For the question w/checkboxes.The script will write int the txt the last selection checked. I need to be able to write all selected options to the txt file and the one that are not check show as empty on the txt file. I will use the content of the txt file to create graphics. I don't like just to copy script but I need to finish this 30 question survey by today.
This is a sample of what i have:
