Allowing users to register as male or female

[BluePixel]

Is this code correct

<?php
if(isset($_POST['submit'])) {
     if($_POST['user_gender'] == 1) {
          
     $user_gender = male;
	
	 }
	 
	 if($_POST['user_ender'] == 2) {
		 
	 $user_gender = female;
	
	}else{
	 
         echo "you must select a gender";
          
     }
}
?>

Am I going in the right direction? Any tutorials?

It looks like it is heading in the right direction, but obviously needs completing

Obviously, as Jacek send, it needs completion; I thought I'd point out to you also in case you're getting silly syntax errors:

if($_POST['user_ender'] == 2) {

Has a typo on it:

if($_POST['user_gender'] == 2) {

I would do;

If user_gender == 2 { female }
else { male }

And just set the radio buttons to 'male' by default
