PHP - Sorting Values In A Combo Box.

Hello Guys, I need your advises.

I am looking for the extension or a tutorial of how to make a multiple combo boxes with condition.
For Example: Let's say I'm gonna have 3 combo boxes, and each of them will work according to the previous selection of previous combo box. Like, if I select state Illinois from the first combo box, the second combo box will show only the cities of Illinois (Chicago, and etc...).

Is there a specific extension or any advises will help
thank you guys

i am trying to create a combo box so the user can order topics by asc or desc. The problem is trying to get the name of the option to Ascending or Descending and the value to asc or desc. Heres what i have so far:

$order_name = array('Ascending', 'Descending');
$order_value = array('asc' => 'Ascending', 'desc' => 'Descending');

echo "<div style=\"float:right;\">";
echo "<form name=\"order_form\" action=\"{$site_root}/index.php\" method=\"GET\">";
echo "<input type=\"hidden\" value=\"{$forum_id}\" name=\"forum\" />";

echo "<select name=\"order_by\" style=\"margin-left:5px;\">";
foreach ($order_name as $i)
{
echo "<option name=\"order_by_option\" value=\"{$order_value}\"/>";
echo "Order By: {$i}";
echo "</option>";
}

echo "</select>";

when i try to order them the GET value is Array.

Any ideas?

Hi,
I am developing a web application using PHP and MySQL. I am filling my combobox with the value fetched from the MySQL database. I want to retain the selected value of the combo box in postback. I am able to do it with the statiic values. But in this case I am binding the combbox   dynamically with the values from the database. Can anybody please help me?
Thanks,

Hi Guys. Hopefully someone can help me with this...New to coding and pretty lost on this.
I have a Mysql database which is displaying results to my webpage with no problems. However I would like to be able to add a combo box to my webpage that would update the mysql database results based on the combo box selection. For example if Ford is chosen from the combo box, the webpage would refresh and show all the results for Ford in the webpage. Can someone please help me?

Here is the code I have at the moment that works just fine. But results of the database are based on the WHERE statement.

Quote

<?php
$con = mysql_connect("server","database","password");
if (!$con)
  {
  die('Could not connect: ' . mysql_error());
  }
mysql_select_db("a5525005_cars", $con);

$result = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM `cars` WHERE Makel='Ford'");

echo "<table class='ex1' border='0' width='113%' style=text-align:center; cellpadding='6' cellspacing='0'>

</tr>";

while($row = mysql_fetch_array($result))
  {
  echo "<tr style=font-family:verdana;font-size:80%;>";
 
    echo "<td width=13%>" . $row[""] . "<img src=\"" . $row["Photo"] . "\"></a>";
    echo '<td width="14%"><a class="mylink" href="' . $row['URL'] . '">' . $row['Model'] . '</a></td>';   
    echo '<td width="5%"><a class="mylink" href="' . $row['URL'] . '">' . $row['Year'] . '</a></td>';
    echo '<td width="4%"><a class="mylink" href="' . $row['URL'] . '">' . $row['Fuel'] . '</a></td>';
       
echo "</tr>";
  }
echo "</table>";
mysql_close($con);
?>

I am trying to make a function that will generate a random number letter combo but the letters can only be abcde, no others. It must come out in the format, 1a~3d~9b~ etc. This is what I have so far:

Code: [Select]
function randomNumLet($amount){
$theNos = array('1', '2', '3', '4', '5', '6', '7', '8', '9');
$theLet = array('a', 'b', 'c', 'd', 'e');
$combo = '';
for($i=0;$i<$amount;++$i)
{
$rand_num = array_rand($theNos, 1);
$rand_let = array_rand($theLet, 1);
$combo .= $theNos[$rand_num[0]].$theLet[$rand_let[0]].'~';
}
return $combo;
}


$num_let = randomNumLet(2);
echo $num_let;
And it returns just '~~' with no numbers or letters. I'm a bit stuck here and would appreciate any help. How can I make the function output 1a~4d~ etc?

Cheers,
Joe

Hi there...

I am working on a PHP web form. I have Group name and its Member details stored in the database.

The Group names from the database table gets populated in a combo box. Now what I'm trying to accomplish is, as soon I select a Group name, all its members should appear in a Label (or something) under the combo box with a textbox field next to the member name for me to assign the member position.

How can we go about doing this. Please see the Screenshot I've attached and you'll have the idea as to what we're trying to accomplish here.

All comments and feedback are welcomed!

Thank you!

I have a simple database table that has the names of countries listed with just 2 fields ID & country. I want to use this in a form to choose the country and provide statistics regarding that country. I know how to get the data from MySQL, but I don't know how I can use this in the form as a selection? How do I get the options to iterate all of the countries so that when the form is displayed a combo type box is displayed with a dropdown list?   I have not shown any code as I am not sure if this is possible.   Please can anyone advise if this is possible and if so some example code?

Hi,

My company has 240+ locations and as such some users (general managers) cover multiple sites.  When I run a query to pull user information, when the user has multiple sites to his or her name, its adds the second / third sites to the next columns, rather than wrapping it inside the same table cell.  It also works the opposite way, if a piece of data is missing in the database and is blank, its pull the following columns in.  Both cases mess up the table and formatting.  I'm extremely new to any kind of programming and maybe this isn't the forum for this question but figured I'd give it a chance since I'm stuck.

The HTML/PHP code is below:

Hi Good day Can someone pls help me regarding with this matter.
I have a page for inserting records. And I have a combobox that is fetched through the specific field in database. I also have a table of records, for each row i have an href edit which throws the values to its respective texbox and combobox. 
THE PROBLEM is that when i click the href edit, the value from a selected row was not displayed from the combobox

Hi all,

Just curious why this works:

Code: [Select]
while (($data = fgetcsv($handle, 1000, ",")) !== FALSE){
$import="INSERT into $prodtblname ($csvheaders1) values('$data[0]','$data[1]','$data[2]','$data[3]','$data[4]','$data[5]','$data[6]')";
}
And this does not:

$headdata_1 = "'$data[0]','$data[1]','$data[2]','$data[3]','$data[4]','$data[5]','$data[6]'";
while (($data = fgetcsv($handle, 1000, ",")) !== FALSE){
$import="INSERT into $prodtblname ($csvheaders1) values($headdata_1)";
}it puts $data[#'s] in the database fields instead of the actual data that '$data[0]','$data[1]'... relates to.

I wrote a script to create the values in $headdata_1 based on the number of headers in $csvheaders1 but can't seem to get it working in the sql statement.

Thanks

Hi all,

I'm a first time poster here and I would really appreciate some guidance with my latest php challenge! I've spent the entire day googling and reading and to be honest I think I'm really over my head and need the assistance of someone experienced to advise the best way to go!

I have a multi dimensional array that looks like (see below); the array is created by CodeIgniter's database library (the rows returned from a select query) but I think this is a generic PHP question as opposed to having anything to do with CI because it related to working with arrays.

I'm wondering how I might go about searching the array below for the key problem_id and a value equal to a variable which I would provide. Then, when it finds an array with a the matching key and variable, it outputs the other values in that part of the array too.

For example, using the sample data below. How would you recommend that I search the array for all the arrays that have the key problem_id and the value 3 and then have it output the value of the key problem_update_date  and the value of the key problem_update_text. Then keep searching to find the next occurrence?

Thanks in advance, as above, I've been searching really hard for the answer and believe i'm over my head!
