I get an error of Undefined index, what is the reason?
while ($row = mysqli_fetch_array($result)) {
echo "<tr>";
echo "<td>" . $row['CandidateName'] . "</td>";
echo "<td>" . $row['Position'] . "</td>";
echo "<td><input type='radio' name='candidateid' value='".$row['candidateID']."' >";
echo "<td>" . $row['NumberofVotes'] . "</td>";
$candidateid=$row['CandidateID'];
}
Here is the error
Array ( [0] => 1 [CandidateID] => 1 [1] => Jejomar Binay [CandidateName] => Jejomar Binay [2] => President [Position] => President [3] => [NumberofVotes] => ) Array ( [0] => 2 [CandidateID] => 2 [1] => Mar Roxas [CandidateName] => Mar Roxas [2] => President [Position] => President [3] => 1 [NumberofVotes] => 1 )
I will show you now the whole code and the its working now, my output here is to add 1 in number of votes when the radio button is working. it has no error but when i selected the first radio button it only updates the second data.
