PHP - Option Selected
I have the following which fils a combo box with years from 1950 to 2100. This is the year box for the date of birth.
Year <select name="year_select"> <?php for( $i=1950; $i<=2100; $i++ ) { echo "<option value=\"{$i}\" class=\"year\">{$i}</option>"; } ?> </select> I want it to automatically display the year that is in the database so instead of automatically displaying 1950 i want their birth year displayed which is $tab_info->user_dob_year. How would i go about this? i dont know where to start since im using a for loop to populate it.

If I have a variable and a hard coded select dropdown, what is the easiest way to compare the variable with the value and set that particular option's selected attributed to selected? Hi, I wanted to make a dynamic php page. I want the user to choose an option you could select in an option box (html) and after that I wish that down the page some text would change. If I take option 1 -> text 1, option 2 -> text 2, ... But this doesn't work, do I need a button or something to made my code running, and how do I have to use it on the same page? Or is it possible to run it automaticly after a new choice?

I understand this might need POST, if it does, I would appreciate a bit of help on how I would set this up as POST since I didn't think a drop down required a submit button. Code: [Select] $character= array (array(Name=>"Barry","Class"=>"Fighter",Level=>1,Str=>10,Dex=>10,"Int"=>10),array(Name=>"Lindehar","Class"=>"Ranger",Level=>1,Str=>10,Dex=>10,"Int"=>10),array(Name=>"Verelden","Class"=>"Mage",Level=>1,Str=>10,Dex=>10,"Int"=>10)); print "Select a Character:<br /><select>"; foreach($character as $array_num) { foreach($array_num as $char_trait=>$trait_value) { if($char_trait==Name) { $selected_value=""; $generated_chars="<option selected=".$selected_value." value='".$char_trait."'>".$char_trait.": ".$trait_value."</option>"; print $generated_chars; if($selected_value=/".$char_trait.": Barry"/") { foreach($char_trait=="Barry") { print "<h4>".$char_trait.": ".$trait_value."</h4>"; } } } } } print "</select><p />"; Not sure exactly where this problem is coming from, but php seems the most likely candidate to fix it. My php loads, from a MySQL database, a list of names (students in a class) and a drop-down for each student with attendance options. Based on the information in the database, the appropriate attendance option is selected (<option selected></option>). Everything works fine on the initial page load. Next, I want to update the status, so I select a new option from the drop-down list and click submit. The php code updates the database correctly, but the selected option (in HTML) is still the original one. If I change the option to something different and submit again, I get the previously selected option (that I selected the first time) - in essence, the HTML is always one step behind the database. I've attached the snippet of relevant code - again, I know that the code works when the page loads initially and that the database is getting updated correctly. Any help or comments are appreciated. I have a form that contains 3 text fields and 7 populated lists (that are dependent on the choice of the previous lists). When I post the information to MySQL and to my processing page, it posts the table "ids" instead of the selected option. Here's the php code for the form: <form action="gccsuccess_form.php" method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data" name="gcc" id="gcc"> <table width="700" border="0" align="center" cellpadding="3" cellspacing="3"> <tr> <td><label for="date">Today's Date:</label> <input type="text" name="date" id="date"></td> <td> </td> </tr> <tr> <td>Week Number: <select name="week" size="1" id="week"> <option value="0" selected>Week 0 - 3/26 - 4/1</option> <option value="1">Week 1 - 4/2 - 4/8</option> <option value="2">Week 2 - 4/9 - 4/15</option> <option value="3">Week 3 - 4/16 - 4/22</option> <option value="4">Week 4 - 4/23 - 4/29</option> <option value="5">Week 5 - 4/30 - 5/6</option> <option value="6">Week 6 - 5/7 - 5/13</option> </select></td> <td><label for="location"></label> </td> </tr> <tr> <td>Location: <select id='locations' name='location'> </select></td> <td> </td> </tr> <tr> <td><label for="label8">Team Name</label> <select id='team_names' name='team_name'> </select></td> <td> </td> </tr> <tr> <td><em>*Please enter each team member's first and last name:</em></td> <td> </td> </tr> <tr> <td><label for="mem_1"> Team <strong>Captain:</strong></label> <select id='team_members 1' name='capt'> </select></td> <td><label for="label4"><strong>Steps:</strong></label> <input type="text" name="steps_1" id="steps_1"></td> </tr> <tr> <td><label for="mem_2">Team Member #2 <strong>Name: <select id='team_members 2' name='mem_2'> </select> </strong></label></td> <td><label for="label5"><strong>Steps:</strong></label> <input type="text" name="steps_2" id="steps_2"></td> </tr> <tr> <td><label for="mem_3">Team Member #3 <strong>Name: <select id='team_members 3' name='mem_3'> </select> </strong></label></td> <td><label for="label6"><strong>Steps:</strong></label> <input type="text" name="steps_3" id="steps_3"></td> </tr> <tr> <td><label for="mem_4">Team Member #4<strong> Name</strong>: <select id='team_members 4' name='mem_4'> </select> </label></td> <td><label for="label7"><strong>Steps:</strong></label> <input type="text" name="steps_4" id="steps_4"></td> </tr> <tr> <td><label for="label">Team Member #5<strong> Name</strong>: <select id='team_members 5' name='mem_5'> </select> </label></td> <td><label for="label7"><strong>Steps:</strong></label> <input type="text" name="steps_5" id="steps_5"></td> </tr> <tr> <td> </td> <td> </td> </tr> <tr> <td> </td> <td><em>* Maximum steps for each team member per week is <strong>105,000. </strong></em></td> </tr> <tr> <td> </td> <td><input type="submit" name="Submit Form" id="Submit Form" value="Submit"></td> </tr> </table> <label></label> <div align="center"><br> If you have questions about the competition or reporting please contact KC WELLNESS, INC toll free at <SPAN id="lw_1237248942_0">877-634-1412.</SPAN><br> <br> </div> </form> And here's the code for the page it is posted in: <?php $date = $_POST['date']; $week = $_POST['week']; $location = $_POST['location']; $team_name = $_POST['team_name']; $capt = $_POST['capt']; $mem_2 = $_POST['mem_2']; $mem_3 = $_POST['mem_3']; $mem_4 = $_POST['mem_4']; $mem_5 = $_POST['mem_5']; $steps_1= $_POST['steps_1']; $steps_2= $_POST['steps_2']; $steps_3= $_POST['steps_3']; $steps_4 = $_POST['steps_4']; $steps_5 = $_POST['steps_5']; mysql_connect("mysql1.myregisteredsite.com", "49200_kandace", "Leonardo56") or die(mysql_error()); mysql_select_db("49200_GCC") or die(mysql_error()); mysql_query("INSERT INTO `walkathon` VALUES ('$date', '$week', '$location', '$team_name', '$capt','$mem_2','$mem_3', '$mem_4', '$mem_5', '$steps_1','$steps_2', '$steps_3','$steps_4', '$steps_5' )"); Print "Thank you for your entry. <br> Report summary: <br/><br/>"; echo "<strong> Date: </strong> {$date} <br/> <br/><strong> Week: </strong> {$week} <br/> <br/><strong> Location: </strong> {$location} <br/> <br/><strong> Team Name: </strong> {$team_name} <br/> <br/><strong> Team Captain: </strong> {$capt} / <strong> Steps: </strong> {$steps_1} <br /> <br/><strong> Team Member 2 Name: </strong> {$mem_2} / <strong> Steps: </strong> {$steps_2} <br /> <br/><strong> Team Member 3 Name: </strong> {$mem_3} / <strong> Steps: </strong> {$steps_3} <br /> <br/><strong> Team Member 4 Name: </strong> {$mem_4} / <strong> Steps: </strong> {$steps_4} <br /> <br/><strong> Team Member 5 Name: </strong> {$mem_5} / <strong> Steps: </strong> {$steps_5}" ?> How do I get the processing page to echo the selected option instead of the id?

<?php Hi, I have an html form in "send.htm" that sends data to "retrieve.php" with the following structu send.htm: Code: [Select] <html> <body> <form method="post" action="retrieve.php" <select id='select' name='select' > <option>option1</option> <option>option2</option> <option>option3</option> <option>etc...</option> </select> <input type="submit"> </form> </body> </html> retrieve.php: Code: [Select] <?php $selectedoption = $_POST['select']; print" <html> <body> <select id='select' name='select' > <option>option1</option> <option>option2</option> <option>option3</option> <option>etc...</option> </select> </body> </html> "; ?> How do I specify that the select menu in retrieve.php should have the option selected that was chosen from the select menu in send.htm?

I want to save the user choice,if the form is re-displayed due to a blank field or pattern mismatch. I know I can use the selected=selected, but don't know wher to put the statement: My array is: state_province = array ("list of states", "provinces") Var in my labels array is "state"=>"state" Here is my code for the select/option statement: { if($field == "state") { echo "<div class='province_state'><label for='state' size='10'>* Province/State</label><select>"; foreach($state_province as $state) { echo "\n<option value='$state_province' /> "; echo $state ; echo "</option>"; } echo "</select></div>\n"; } ?Is this the correct code to add and where would I add it? if(@$_POST['state'] == $value) { echo "selected='selected' "; } Hi all, I have a html drop down menu and want to show the initially selected value as the one stored in the mysql database that a member selected. I have 180+ rows in mysql that a member could have selected and would like to basically do this: IF (value of option == $row['value'] ) { echo "selected=\"selected\"; } I could put this in every one of the rows it would be much better to have an if statement. As there are so many values I do not know where to begin. Can someone point me in the right direction? Thanks This topic has been moved to JavaScript Help. http://www.phpfreaks.com/forums/index.php?topic=307346.0 I have this loop on a shorturl website i own that selects domains from my website and lists them in a dropdown list where users can select one domain to use as url shortener.
