PHP - Drop Down - Select Option Based On Stored Value

OK so I'm having a pull my hair out moment. I have spent all day trying to figure this out. I have a select box for a list of customers where one customer is unique and I want that account to appear twice in the list. That part was easy and when selected the appropriate info populates the page.

The problem I am having is that no matter which one of those two options I click it only selects the second option . So in other words if these are the two options in the list:

Some Business Week 1
Some Business Week 2

when I click either, Some Business Week 2 is always the one selected even though the page populates correctly. Any thoughts on what I need to change?

Code: [Select]
  <?php do {
mysql_select_db($database_customers, $customers);
$query_multiple = "SELECT accnt, week, alt FROM schedule WHERE accnt = " . $customer['accnt'];
$multiple_sel = mysql_query($query_multiple, $customers) or die(mysql_error());
$multiple = mysql_fetch_assoc($multiple_sel);
$multiple_run = $multiple['alt'];

if($multiple_run > 1) {

for ($i = 1; $i <= $multiple_run; $i++) {

mysql_select_db($database_customers, $customers);
$query_get_week = "SELECT week, alt FROM schedule WHERE accnt = " . $customer['accnt'] . " AND alt = " . $i;
$get_week_sel = mysql_query($query_get_week, $customers) or die(mysql_error());
$get_week = mysql_fetch_assoc($get_week_sel);

$version1 = $inv_title . " Week " . $get_week['week'];
$version2 = $customer['name'] . " Week " . $get_week['week']; ?>

         <option value="report.php?accnt=<?php echo $customer['accnt']; ?>&alt=<?php echo $get_week['alt'];?>"<?php if (!(strcmp($version1, $version2))) {echo "selected=\"selected\"";} ?>><?php echo $version2; ?></option>

<?php  }
 } else {
$version1 = $inv_title;
$version2 = $customer['name']; ?>

         <option value="report.php?accnt=<?php echo $customer['accnt']; ?>&alt=<?php echo $multiple['alt'];?>"<?php if (!(strcmp($version1, $version2))) {echo "selected=\"selected\"";} ?>><?php echo $version2; ?></option>
<?php } ?>

Hello, guys! Just a small first ever thread, where I ask a question where I hope anyone is able to help me out

I am working on a project with a friend of mine for a company. I have a problem with the function on a form.
I wonder; How do i change the option value of a form? Let's say if I choose a category like "Cake", I want the second drop down box to display different brands of cake. But if I choose bicycle for example, I want the option values to be different brands of bicycles. I hope you guys understand what I was trying to say here.
Anyways, here is a sample image where I want this function to occur:

Sample:


Cheers and thanks in advance,

Hi..

I need to add code to check if the compound that was choose is reach the maximum value then if it is already reach theirs a notification displayed that he already gain the maximum.

the problem is..I don't know how can I check if what the user choose before run the condition.

here is my code:

Code: [Select]

My only purpose is to avoid adding data so i need to prompt if he already reach the maximum per compound.


Thank you so much

i have this select box in a form

Code: [Select]
<select name='theoptions' style='color: #000000;text-align:center;background-color:#DEDEDE;border: 1px solid #D99C29;width:163px;padding:5px;' onchange='optionChanged(this);ChgBox(this.value);'>

   <option value='1' >Your comment on</option>
  <option value='3' >Your question on</option>
  <option value='4' >Your expertise on</option>
  <option value='2' >Your image about</option>
  <option value='5' >Your website about</option>
  <option value='0' >Comparison</option>

</select>

on the page where the form directs to i have

  Code: [Select]
$options = $_POST['theoptions'];
I want to get option 5 specificially, how do i do that?

I've been using an option that's a state, an example would be South Carolina or North Dekota.
In the url the $_GET var turns it into South+Carolina or North+Dekota.
Is this common and okay across different Browsers? I've tried ie and firefox and the + sign is addded but I was wondering if they're just designed to be as idiot proof as possible.

Thanks

I'm trying to pass php select option value to another page through url.but it's not working.please help me.   member.php

Hi..

I got problem in logic on my problem in select option.

Here is my scenario.

I have select option which has a compound list:

example:

P28
P30
P32
P33
P35


and I have tables which has a total count of
compound that was already transact.

for example I already transact
10 P28 compound.

it will save in kanban_checker table field Total.

and I have parameter_settings table which has the maximum and minimum per compound:

fields----------data
P28------------P28
P28_max-----10
P28_min------6
P30------------P28
P30_max-----10
P30_min------6
P32------------P28
P32_max-----10
P32_min------6
P33------------P28
P33_max-----10
P33_min------6


now the logic is:

if P28 total = P28_max then notify that he already reach the maximum..it will not produce P28 because he already reach the maximum.

if P28 total = P28_min then produce P28.

same with other compound.

Now, I got a problem in coding and logic, because in the select option I'm not the one who code it.. I just one who need to add the additional function..

here is the code for select option and the function that was created by other,

Code: [Select]
$smarty->assign('text_name1','Compound Code');
 $smarty->assign('compoundIndexValue', array('0',  'P28',  'P30',  'P32',  'P33',  'P35',  'P35M',  'P38',  'P40', 'P41',  'P42',  'P43', 'P46', 'P47', 'PXX', 'P35W'));

            <td class="tdMainText">{$text_name1}</td>
           
            <td> <select class="tdMainElement" id="selCompound"  onchange="isSelected('selCompound','txtLotCode')" onclick="clearNotify()" onblur="this.focus();" onkeypress="return false">{html_options values=$compoundIndexValue output=$names selected="0"} </select> </td>
            </tr>

<script type="text/javascript">
function isSelected(obj1, obj2) {

     if (!document.getElementById(obj1).disabled) {
         document.getElementById(obj1).disabled = true;

but I don't know if my code and my logic is correct.

I think  I did to add function.

But I don't know how..

I hope someone can help me or guide me to solve my problem.

Thank you so much..

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 All,

 

I am creating a dropdown box on an edit user form.  The box is populated from a table ssm_role and relates to the user which is another table.

I am wanting the value of the dropdown to be set as whatever the loaded user has in their database table.

See the images below.

$sql = "SELECT * FROM ssm_role ORDER BY role_name ASC";
if($result = mysqli_query($conn, $sql)){
if (mysqli_num_rows($result)>0){
while ($row = mysqli_fetch_array($result)){
echo "<option value='".$row['role_id']."'>".$row['role_name']."</option>";
}
}
}

This is what i am currently doing to make the dropdown but obviously this isnt even attempting to set the default.

Your help is always appreciated

What I'm wanting to do is pass the $propertyid = "1";  threw my select value as you can see. so it passes variable so to speak.'



Code: [Select]
print "<td>Control:<form action=\"dashboard.php\" method=\"GET\" target=\"_self\">
        <select name=\"control\" onChange=\"this.form.submit()\">
        <option selected></option>
        <option>Take a Payment</option>
        <option>Print Ledger </option>
        <option>-----------------</option>
        <option value=\"comadd?propid=$propertyid\">Add Communication</option>
        <option>----------------</option>
        <option>Modify Property</option>
        <option>Remote Property</option>
        </select></td>";

Hey guys there is probably a simple fix to this but i am just not seeing it    ... Im createing a form that has error catching and self submitting valuse. I am trying to use a for loop to create all of the values and if the form is returned with an error then the correct values will still be filled out but i cant seem to get this loop to work. Every time i submit the form it doesnt matter what option i select it always comes back with the last one in the list or 30 in this case.

the problem code is below.. Any help would be appreciated.

Code: [Select]

<?php
for($i=1; $i<=30; $i++){
echo'<option value="'.$i.'"';
if(isset($_POST['petsAge'])== $i){ echo ' selected="selected"';}
echo '>'.$i.'</option>';
}
?>

Hi,

I am doing an EDIT user page and would like to check records with a dropdown and then set as selected, please help!


<select name="BrokerID" class="small-input">

<option value="Please select an option">Please select a Broker</option> 

<?php 

while($row2 = mysql_fetch_array($broker))

{

echo '<option name="BrokerID" value="'.$row2['BrokerID'].'">'.$row2['BrokerName'].'</option>';

}

?>

</select>

This is more of a Paypal question, but I'm using php on the listener and hopefully someone has run into this problem.  I'm having trouble finding the correct POST name to use to get the OPTION SELECT for the item on my listener page.

I tried:

$option = $_POST['os0'];

But, I'm not getting anything using that. I've also tried os0_x, on0, and on0_x.

This is what I'm posting to Paypal:

<input type="hidden" name="on0" value="Term">
<select name="os0">
<option value="1 Year">1 Year</option>
<option value="3 Years">3 Years</option>
<option value="5 Years">5 Years</option>
</select>

Hi,  I'm a php newbie, with some mysql experience. I have a mysql database as follows:

What I need is:
1. A dropdown list to display reportno from mysql database.
2. Depending on which reportno I choose, I'd like to open a popup(or separate) page to display the stored information.

Tks in advance for any help
