An effective method for utilizing a multiple choice input (presented as buttons) for entering data into a database using html, css, and js

I'm trying to figure out the coding process using buttons and input It's giving me a result, but only allows for a single choice

Although I have limited experience with this, my goal is to create a multiple choice selection for days of the week and a single choice for weekly frequency. This way, I can utilize the data through JavaScript on a page that dynamically adds more "day-containers" based on user selections from the buttons.

Thank you in advance for your assistance!

I've attempted to use radio buttons and checkboxes, but struggled to style them as buttons while also including text within the button area. As mentioned, my experience is somewhat limited in this area, but I am eager to learn and improve.

Always remember not to alter the HTML for styling purposes, as there are alternative ways to achieve the desired style. For example, to make radio buttons appear as buttons, simply adjust the CSS styling. If you wish to hide the dot associated with radio buttons, you can use either opacity: 0.001; or appearance: none

.day-selector label{
    border-style: solid;
    width:200px;
}
.day-selector label:hover {
    background: red;
}
.day-selector input[type="radio"] {
    appearance: none;
}
    
.day-selector input[type="radio"]:checked + label {
    background: yellow;
}

I came across this helpful example in a previous post on Stack Overflow
