[FX.php List] Adding a Radio Button set to an Array

[William Downs]

Hi Dale,

thanks for the speedy reply !

I was unsure where to insert your code -
here is my current foreach statement :

<?php
		foreach($salesListResult['data'] as $key=>$salesListData) {	
		$salesrecid = $salesListData['recid'][0];
 		$esNameSales = htmlentities( $salesListData['Name'][0] );
?>
	<li>
		<form id="SalesAssign_<?php echo $salesrecid ?>"
action="SalesAssign.php" method="post">
			<input type="hidden" name="recid" value="<?php echo $salesrecid; ?>">
			<input type="hidden" name="search" value="<?php echo $search; ?>">
                       <p><?php echo $esNameSales; ?>
			<input type="image" name="submit" src="<?php echo $img;?>"></p>		
		</form>
	</li>
<?php
		}
?>

It is the submit I want to swap out with a radio.

Is this clearer ?
