PHP - Load Form Dynamically Based On A Dropdown Selection
I have 10 tables in my database.
I want load these 10 table names into a drop-down list. If a user selects a value form the drop-down list, a form should be displayed with related to the table. (form fields should be appropriate table's column headers) When user fill the form and submitted, data should be saved in the selected table. Give me a code example to do this. Similar TutorialsThis topic has been moved to Ajax Help. http://www.phpfreaks.com/forums/index.php?topic=349871.0 Hello, is it possible to define the next page after a form submission based on a value from the form ? Example: My form has a dropdown Value 1: Flight Value 2: Flight + Hotel now i'm trying to achieve that if value 1 is chosen after submission it goes to flight.php, if value 2 it should go to flighthotel.php or am i heading into the completely wrong direction here and over complicating things ? Thanks in advance ! Hello, i have a form with a dropdown selection with the values 1 to 8, on the submit page i have another form which has 8 divs, now i want to show only a number of those divs based on the selection of the dropdown from the previous page. example: 1st page dropdown value is 4, form gets submitted, on the next page show div 1 & 2 & 3 & 4, and so on. Is this possible? /Edit: i just thought about it again and i think i could use Code: [Select] <?php $dropdown=$_POST['dropdown']; if($dropdown=="1") { ?> around the div tags, but then i would have to make 8 forms and take out 1 div one by one based on the dropdown selection, or is my thinking wrong? My problem is when the entries in the form are validated and some fields with incorrect entries are found the fields filled out stay on the re-load of the form, all of them except the US States drop down menu which reverts back to Alabama every time. I would like to see that the user selection stays in place even after a re-load of the form. and with my limited experience I am having an issue trying to figure this out for a school project. Any help at all would be greatly appreciated, like what variables to create/call on and where exactly I insert this code. Much appreciated. here is the display code: <?php /* Program name: exercise_4_form.inc * Description: Defines a form that collects a user's * name and mailing address. */ $rows = array( "first_name" => "First Name (optional)", "last_name" => "Last Name", "phone" => "Phone Number", "city" => "City", "state" => "State", "address" => "Address", "zip_code" => "ZIP Code", "e_mail" => "E-Mail"); $states_list = array('AL'=>"Alabama",'AK'=>"Alaska",'AZ'=>"Arizona", 'AR'=>"Arkansas",'CA'=>"California",'CO'=>"Colorado",'CT'=>"Connecticut", 'DE'=>"Delaware",'DC'=>"District Of Columbia",'FL'=>"Florida",'GA'=>"Georgia", 'HI'=>"Hawaii",'ID'=>"Idaho",'IL'=>"Illinois", 'IN'=>"Indiana", 'IA'=>"Iowa", 'KS'=>"Kansas",'KY'=>"Kentucky",'LA'=>"Louisiana",'ME'=>"Maine", 'MD'=>"Maryland", 'MA'=>"Massachusetts",'MI'=>"Michigan",'MN'=>"Minnesota", 'MS'=>"Mississippi",'MO'=>"Missouri",'MT'=>"Montana",'NE'=>"Nebraska", 'NV'=>"Nevada",'NH'=>"New Hampshire",'NJ'=>"New Jersey",'NM'=>"New Mexico", 'NY'=>"New York",'NC'=>"North Carolina",'ND'=>"North Dakota",'OH'=>"Ohio", 'OK'=>"Oklahoma", 'OR'=>"Oregon",'PA'=>"Pennsylvania",'RI'=>"Rhode Island", 'SC'=>"South Carolina",'SD'=>"South Dakota",'TN'=>"Tennessee",'TX'=>"Texas", 'UT'=>"Utah",'VT'=>"Vermont",'VA'=>"Virginia",'WA'=>"Washington",'WV'=>"West Virginia", 'WI'=>"Wisconsin",'WY'=>"Wyoming"); $submit = "Submit mailing information"; ?> <html> <head> <style type='text/css'> <!-- body { background: #42413C; color: #000; font-family: Tahoma, Geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 90%; } form { margin: 1em 2 2 2; padding: 1; width: 1100px; margin-left: 35%; } .field {padding-bottom: 1em; } label { font-weight: bold; float: left; width: 15%; margin-right: 1em; text-align: right; background-color: #9F6; padding-right: 5px; } select {margin-bottom: 1em;} #submit { margin-left: 15%; } h3 { width: 500px; margin-left: 35%; } --> </style> </head> <body> <h3>Please enter your mailing information below:</h3> <?php /* loop that displays the form */ echo "<form action='$_SERVER[PHP_SELF]' method='POST'>"; foreach($rows as $field => $label) if($field == "state") { echo "<label for='$field'>$label</label> <select id='$field' name='$field'>\n"; foreach ( $states_list as $abbr => $sname ) { echo "<option value='$abbr'>$sname</option>\n"; } echo "</select>\n"; } else { echo "<div class='field'><label for='$field'>$label</label> <input id='$field' name='$field' type='text' value='".@$$field."' size='25%' maxlength='65' /></div>\n"; } echo "<div id='submit'> <input type='hidden' name='submitted' value='yes'> <input type='submit' value='$submit'></div>"; ?> </form> </body> </html>Here is the Logic on the combined php file that displays and has the statements on it for the form: <?php /* Program name: exercise_4_form_verifications.php * Description: Program checks all the form fields for * blank fields and verifies them */ if(isset($_POST['submitted']) and $_POST['submitted'] == "yes") { foreach($_POST as $field => $value) { if(empty($value)) { if($field != "first_name") { $blank_array[] = $field; } } else { $good_data[$field] = strip_tags(trim($value)); } } if(@sizeof($blank_array) > 0) { $message = "<p style='color: black; margin-bottom: 0;font-weight: bold; margin-left: 35%'> You didn't fill in one or more required fields.

What I need to do is build a simple form that has two options, they will be dropdown options. Dropdown A and Dropdown B then a Submit button. This part I understand in HTML, although it may be easier in php or javascript.
Then I need it to take the two options and create a "if/then" statement that loads a specific pdf that matches the two options selected.
Example.
If someone selects Option 1 from Dropdown A and Option 2 From Dropdown B then it loads 12.pdf If someone selects Option 5 from Dropdown A and Option 3 From Dropdown B then it loads 53.pdf If someone selects Option 2 from Dropdown A and Option 1 From Dropdown B then it loads 21.pdf and so on... It does not have to be the exact thing just some way to take both inputs and have it equal a specific pdf. Here is the form I built but I don't know what to put in the form_action.php file in order to make it work <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd"> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"> <head> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" /> <title>Untitled Document</title> </head> <body> <center> <h1> Get Directions</h1> <form action="form_action.php" method="get" name="directions" target="_new"> <select name="startpoint" size="1"> <option value="north">North Tower Entrance</option> <option value="south">South Tower Entrance</option> <option value="moba">MOB A Entrance</option></select> -----> <select name="endpoint" size="1"> <option value="onco">Oncology</option> <option value="radio">Radiology</option> <option value="pulm">Pulmanary</option></select> <br /><br /> <input type="submit" value="Submit" /> </form> </center> </body> </html>Any help is appreciated, thanks. Hello there, I'm trying to show a picture based on the value that was chosen in the dropdown menu of the page before the submit. Let's say i'm having a drop down form with 3 values: Porsche, BMW, Audi, the form also consists of a button to submit form and some other text fields but these aren't really relevant. So what i want is, you choose whatever car, let's say BMW, fill in all the other data of the form, hit submit, and on the next page it should show a Picture which i define for each car. I hope i explained that somehow understandable. Thanks in advance, Sabine Good day: I am tryint to redirect back to a page based on non selection.

I was going to do something like this: Code: [Select] // validate for instrument selection if(!isset($_POST['instrument'])) { $serrors[] = 'Please select your instrument.'; } else { $_SESSION['instrument'] = $_POST['instrument']; } The problem is, the session variable gets set if the user bypasses the menu altogether, leaving the default 'Select your instrument...' option (at the top) as it is.

Good day and Merry Christmas to all, I just spent a good time of my christmas eve trying to figure out this problem. I hope one of you santas would be so kind as to help me with it. First off I have two tables; employee and employee_works both connected via employee_id key. Basically I have a parent window we'll call parent.php. inside the parent page is a search button that once clicked will open a child window we'll call child.php inside the child page is a list, lets say employees with name, employee_id, etc. My main concern is this: How do I populate parent.php based off the employee selection I made in the child window. Example: -Access parent.php -Click on search -Click on [ID: 004] [NAME: JOHN SMITH] [PHONE: 1233456] [DATE HIRED: JULY 16, 1992] <---format of a row in child.php -child.php automatically closes and parent.php now shows all data from employee_works with the employee_id = 004 Is this even possible? I know this is vary vague and would be willing to explain more if needed. My website is built mostly on javascript and php. Hello, I had 8 select boxes(dropdowns) in a form. Its like a search kind of implementation in the website. I don't know what the user selects, he may choose different select boxes, any number of select boxes. So, based upon the user selection, I need to generate the data. The data fields to be generated would be almost same. So, How would I know what the user selection is and how many select boxes has been selected and how could I generate different data based upon selected boxes. I had to make a small note abt this, that the data generation fields may change for some of the user select combinations, but most of the result fields would be same. so, can you please help me out, how to do, how to make different combination data generations, because, i had 8 fields, i had to make 8! combinations, that would result in a big code. (not sure if this should be in php or javascript section) I am trying to create a dropdown list that loads content according to the option chosen..
