Loading LIST Menus with data from database
Hi,
<form name="form1" method="post" action="">
<select name="select">
<option value="<?php $selected="domain 1";print mysql_result($result,0,"do
<option value="<?php $selected="domain 2";print mysql_result($result,1,"do
</select>
<input type="submit" name="Submit" value="SHOW">
</form>
Im using the code above to force 2 rows of data into the list menu, how do I get the list menu to auto populate from the rows in the database ?
When one is actually selected and the Submit button is clicked it also needs to set the $selected variable to the domain name selected.
Thank

you can remove $num = 0; you don't need it.

>> When one is actually selected and the Submit button is clicked it also needs to set the $selected variable to the domain name selected.
$selected = $_POST['domain'];
The post value of domain will contain the domain name that was selected in the drop down list
$selected = $_POST['domain'];
The post value of domain will contain the domain name that was selected in the drop down list

Hi Diablo84,
I used a slightly smaller piece of code that seems to do the trick nicely, seems its all pretty much working as planned at the moment...
http://www.stormfusion.com/dms.php
L=DMS-001-1000
P=test
Except for the DOMAIN link, it currently links to http://www.stormfusion.com/domainone.com for some reason, it should be http://www.domainone.com. The $domain variable only contains the domainone.com part and not the http://www.
Im using the code as...
<?php echo "<a href='" . mysql_result($result3,0,"d
Once this is fixed I will close the question.
Thankyou
