I have an ordered list from 1 to 15. I put these list items in a form and assigned a checkbox to each. An user can choose whatever he wishes from the items in this form.
When the user fills in and sends the form, I want to separate this list under certain headings.
For example:
<form>
<input type="checkbox" value="1" name="checklist[]"> Option 1
<input type="checkbox" value="2" name="checklist[]"> Option 2
<input type="checkbox" value="3" name="checklist[]"> Option 3
<input type="checkbox" value="4" name="checklist[]"> Option 4
<input type="checkbox" value="5" name="checklist[]"> Option 5
<input type="checkbox" value="6" name="checklist[]"> Option 6
<input type="checkbox" value="7" name="checklist[]"> Option 7
<input type="checkbox" value="8" name="checklist[]"> Option 8
<input type="checkbox" value="9" name="checklist[]"> Option 9
<input type="checkbox" value="10" name="checklist[]"> Option 10
<input type="checkbox" value="11" name="checklist[]"> Option 11
<input type="checkbox" value="12" name="checklist[]"> Option 12
<input type="checkbox" value="13" name="checklist[]"> Option 13
<input type="checkbox" value="14" name="checklist[]"> Option 14
<input type="checkbox" value="15" name="checklist[]"> Option 15
</form>
According to the results you choose:
Category A
Questions in this category: 1 – 3 – 4 – 10
You selected: 3 – 4 – 10
Category B
Questions in this category: 2 – 8 – 11 – 14 – 15
You selected: 2 – 8 – 11
Category C
Questions in this category: 5 – 6 – 7 – 9 – 12 – 13
You selected: 5 – 7 – 12 – 13
Can you give me an idea of how I can do this?

Answer
I found the answer to the question I asked by searching. For those who need help with this, I add it here.
First, make the options of each category into an array.
$category_A = array (1, 3, 4, 10);
$category_B = array (2, 8, 11, 14, 15);
$category_C = array (5, 6, 7, 9, 12, 13)
Then insert these arrays into the foreach loop and check if the selected options are in this array. An example for category A:
foreach ( $category_A as $value ) {
if ( in_array( $value, $_POST['check_list'] ) ){
echo '<span class="selected">'. $value .'</span>';
} else {
echo '<span>'. $value .'</span>';
}
}
