  • what HTML does this part produce? Did you check what PHP send back to the browser (view source)? I think you will find a hint there. Commented Oct 7, 2019 at 13:42

    Replace checked='$checked' with just $checked Commented Oct 7, 2019 at 13:43
  • The fact that you have the word checked at all makes it checked. checked='off' or ='no' or =0 will still be checked. Commented Oct 7, 2019 at 13:49

Your condition on false becomes like this: <input type='checkbox' checked=''> which is always true for making checked to checkbox. So change like this:

<?php $checked=""; if($pro_cat>=1){ $checked="checked"; } echo" <tr> <td ><br>Day<hr>Night</td> <td> <label class='container'> <input type='checkbox' $checked> <span class='checkmark'></span> </label>"; ?>
