PHP - Foreach To Create Dropdown List Problem
I have the following code which works (thanks to PHP Freaks members)
foreach ($swap["sims"] as $swap)
{
echo $swap['voice'] . "</br>";
}
But I can't figure out why the following doesn't work
<select name="sim_for_swap[]">
<?php
foreach ($swap["sims"] as $swap)
{
?>
<option value="<?php echo $swap['voice'];?>"><?php echo $swap['voice'];?></option>
<?php
}
?>

If the first dropdown "3 Compact " is selected second dropdown should not be able to select "3 Compact" & if first dropdown "5 Regular" is selected second dropdown should not be able to select below values of 5 Regular like "3 Compact, 3 Regular, 3 Triple, 5 Compact. The logic is, if first dropdown value selects like 5, second dropdown value must select above 5 not 4 or 3 or 2 or 1. i have made a simple header page for a project.
now i want to create a dropdown menu for a single menu item in the menu bar.
how i will do that ..??
for ex-under COURSES MENU, THE SUBMENU ARE : DEGREE,DIPLOMA,HIGHSCHOOL.
how come the lines: PHP Code: echo $form['catcher_id']; $catcher_names = $form['catcher_id'] foreach($catcher_names as $val) { echo "testing loop"; } produce nothing?? its not doing the foreach. $form['catcher_id']; is a dropdown list containing catcher names please help? thanks Hi, I'll try and keep this brief but it really is a case of searching for needle in a haystack... I've just started working for a UK charity whose main activity is supported by a massive website. Stacks of information sheets, 3 distinct forums (each about the size of Freaks here), numerous blogs, events pages, webinars etc. etc. Essentially, it is an on-line free community that serves the needs of a very sizeable percentage of man and womankind. Like many charities it relies on gratis contributions from those with time or money to spare. I don't have either, but I do believe in what they are doing. The problem is that that the site itself has grown or rather mutated to become a huge data repository, built from a number of contributors with different skills sets and ways of doing things. At the back of it lurks a CMS which staff (a limited number) use to update site content. 95% of the site is in PHP, with a host of other ingredients thrown into the pot (Tiny-MCE, Perl, Ajax, Fancybox, html5, flash, blah and blah). The problem is in the CMS when someone tries to enter a date beyond 2014 there is no option to do so - -.i.e. that's as far as the dropdown goes. I can see the problem but can't find the offending script/files. Anywhere. Here's a snippet from the viewable source for those with keener eyesight:

Edited by Ch0cu3r, 25 November 2014 - 07:15 AM. the line : echo $form['catcher_id'] gives me a dropdown list when i choose another item from the dropdown i want to do a few things but my code not working: $selected_catcher = $form['catcher_id']; foreach($selected_catcher as $val) { $catcher_name = $val->getName(); echo $catcher_name." ".$val->getId(); if ($catcher_name = "zed-catcher") { echo $form['service_code']->renderLabel(); echo $form['service_code']->renderError(); echo $form['service_code']; } } please help? thanks Hey all, I'm wondering the best way to use foreach to break a list of records into groups. For example, the problem with this: Code: [Select] foreach($vanity_url as $v){ if($v->approved){ echo "Approved vanity urls:"; echo $v->url; } else { echo "Unapproved vanity urls:"; echo $v->url; } } is it will return this: Code: [Select] Approved vanity urls: michellefrancis Unapproved vanity urls: johnmerlino Unapproved vanity urls: ericmayers when I want it to return this: Code: [Select] Approved vanity urls: michellefrancis Unapproved vanity urls: johnmerlino ericmayers thanks for response how do i this? i have no idea....i need to incorporate it on an html form pleas help? i will get the data from this line and must be able to select one from the dropdown and get the id/name from the one selected [COLOR="Red"]$supplier_names = LpmAdnetworkPeer::getByName($catcher_id);[/COLOR] thank you I'm attempting to create a dropdown hover menu by following the instructions on the Suckerfish site. The list that is supposed to dropdown simply stays visible all the time. Is there anything in the code that seems to be the apparent cause of the problem? You will be able to tell that I'm new to PHP. Any suggestions would be appreciated. The following is my CSS and PHP code: CSS: Code: [Select] #nav, #nav ul{ padding: 0; margin: 0; list-style: none; } #nav a{ display: block; width: 10em; } #nav li{ float: left; width: 10em; } #nav li ul{ position: absolute; width: 10em; left: -999em; } #nav li: hover ul{ left: auto; } #nav li:hover ul, #nav li.sfhover ul{ left: auto; } PHP/JavaScript: Code: [Select] function draw_app_menu() { // draw the application menu ?> <!-- left - background-color: #cdeb8b - lime --> [color=blue]<script type="text/javascript"> shHover = function() { var sfEls = document.getElementByID("nav").getElementsByTagName("LI"); for (var i=0; i<sfEls.length;i++) { sfEls[i].onmouseover=function() { this.className+=" sfhover"; } sfEls[i].onmouseout=function() { this.className=this.className.replace(new RegExp(" sfhover\\b"), ""); } } } if (window.attachEvent) window.attachEvent("onload",sfhover); </script>[/color] [color=green]<ul id = "nav">[/color] <?php session_start(); if (isset($_SESSION['selected_app'])) { // echo '<p> selected_app was set </p>'; foreach ($_SESSION['application_list'] as $app_list) { if (($app_list[5] == 'A') && ($app_list[0] == $_SESSION['selected_app'])) { $_SESSION['current_link'] = $app_list[2]; } if (($app_list[0] == $_SESSION['selected_app']) && (($app_list[5] == 'M') || ($app_list[5] == 'S'))) { if ($app_list[5] == 'M') { ?> [color=green]<li><a href="<?php echo $_SESSION['current_link'].'?id='.$_SESSION['selected_app'].'&modid='.$app_list[3].'&func='.$app_list[6];?>"><?php echo $app_list[1];?></a></li>[/color] <?php $_SESSION['selected_mod'] = $_GET['modid']; $_SESSION['app_function'] = $_GET['func']; } ?> [color=green] <ul>[/color] <?php if ($app_list[5] == 'S') { ?> [color=green]<li><a href="<?php echo $_SESSION['current_link'].'?id='.$_SESSION['selected_app'].'&modid='.$app_list[3].'&submodid='.$app_list[4].'&func='.$app_list[6];?>"><?php echo $app_list[1];?></a></li>[/color] <?php $_SESSION['selected_mod'] = $_GET['modid']; $_SESSION['selected_submod'] = $_GET['submodid']; $_SESSION['app_function'] = $_GET['func']; } ?> [color=green]</ul> </li>[/color] <?php } } } ?> [color=green]</ul>[/color] <script src="sfhover.js" type="text/javascript"></script> <?php } Hi all, here's my code: Code: [Select] <?php foreach ($_SESSION['topping'] as $value) { echo "<tr><td width='30%'>Topping</td><td width='50%'>$value</td><td width='20%'><select name='notopping'>"; foreach ($_SESSION['cupcake'] as $number) { '<option name="notoppings[]" value="'.$number.'">".$number."</option>'; } echo "</select></td></tr>"; } ?> $_SESSION['cupcake'] is a value from either 6, 12, 24 or 36. What I want to do is put them into a drop down box (second foreach) as the value and the displayed value - counting up from 1 (so 1,2,3,4,5,6 or up to 12,24 etc). Also by creating this as an array, does this mean than for each topping (say Vanilla and Chocolate) the value dynamically created can be used on the next page by using $_POST['notoppings'] to display each type (two different numbers - one for Vanilla and one for Chocolate). Does that make sense? Thanks! Jason Hi all, firstly apologies as this is a cross post from another forum and we have hit a block.. I am hoping that opening this up to another set of gurus we can get a resolution. What I am trying to achieve is this... I have 2 tables Main and FinancialYear. Main holds all data which I use a form to post the data to it..(all works fine). I use this code to create a drop down in the insert.php form. again this works. Code: [Select] <tr><td>Financial Year: xxxx/xxxx</td><td> <!-- pulls the data from the table variable to populate the dropdown menu --> <?php $database = 'Projects_Main'; $fintable = 'FinancialYear'; if (!mysql_connect($db_host, $db_user, $db_pwd)) die("Can't connect to database 'cos somethin' is wrong"); if (!mysql_select_db($database)) die("Can't select database"); $result = mysql_query("SELECT FinancialYear_id, FinancialYear FROM {$fintable} order by FinancialYear"); $options=""; while ($row=mysql_fetch_array($result)) { //$id=$row["FinancialYear_id"]; $thing=$row["FinancialYear"]; $options.="<OPTION VALUE=\"$thing\">".$thing.'</option>'; } ?> <SELECT NAME="FinancialYear"> <OPTION VALUE=0>Choose</OPTION> <?=$options?> </SELECT> </td></tr> What I have done is built another form which list all records in the database and creates an update url for every record that passes the field Project_id where i use $_get to retrieve the Project_id to retrieve the relevant data into the update.php form. I am able to populate the form with all the correct information BUT I am looking to introduce some dropdowns to aid updating the data and provide consistency to the data. . Code: [Select] // Connect to server and select database. mysql_connect("$host", "$username", "$password")or die("cannot connect"); mysql_select_db('Projects_Main')or die("cannot select DB"); // get value of id that sent from address bar $Project_id=$_GET['Project_id']; //define vars $FinancialYear=$_POST['FinancialYear']; // other vars defined here also.. about 30 // Retrieve data from database $sql="SELECT * FROM Main WHERE Project_id='$Project_id'"; $result=mysql_query($sql); $rows=mysql_fetch_array($result); ?> //update_record_ac.php posts the data to the dbase. <form name="form1" method="post" action="update_record_ac.php"> <center> <table> <tr><td><b>Store Details<b></td></tr> <tr><td>Financial Year:</td><td> // takes the data from $rows and present to form <input name="FinancialYear" type="text" id="FinancialYear" value="<?php echo $rows['FinancialYear']; ?>"> // this is where I need to create the drop down.. see my other comments in the post..... </td></tr> the financialYear table consists if the following; financialyear_id - pri, auto inc. ---- data format is 2010/2011, 2011/2012.... financialyear the main table contains 30 fields .. won't list em all... Project_id - pri, auto inc financialyear I need the drop down to pull the data from the financialyear table and then to present or focus on the currently stored data... so if the store value in the table Main is 2010/2011 if Ii was to select the update url in the list_record.php it will pull all the relevant data into update_record.php form. the financialyear field in the form should be a dropdown with all the financial years listed but the 2010/2011 is selected or focused. I still need to be able to change the entry and post this back to the table Main..... So the dropdown contains the list of years from the financialyear table but when the record is pulled from table main the year that is stored in table Main should be highlighted in the dropdown and I should be able to select a new record and post back to the table Main.. any thoughts... please don't slate for the cross post, I haven't sanatised the data at any stage. I know i'm open to injection attacks. and yes my code is a little dirty... all these will be rectified as i finalise the process and ensure the consept works. Thanks for taking the time to read and hopefully you are able to understand the requirement and are able to assist. thanks Balgrath Hi, I am trying to call the data from Mysql but I am getting an empty drop down list, this is the code: mysql: Code: [Select] create table years ( yearID integer auto_increment, year varchar(30), primary key (yearID) ); insert into years (yearID, year) values ('1', '2007-2008'); insert into years (yearID, year) values ('2', '2008-2009'); insert into years (yearID, year) values ('3', '2009-2010'); insert into years (yearID, year) values ('4', '2010-2011'); insert into years (yearID, year) values ('5', '2011-2012'); insert into years (yearID, year) values ('6', '2012-2013'); PHP: Code: [Select] <?php require_once('../Connections/connection.php'); ?> <?php $result = @mysql_query( "select yearID, year, from sss.years"); print "<p>Select a year:\n"; print "<select name=\"yearID\">\n"; while ($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($result)){ $yearID = $row[ 'yearID' ]; $year = $row[ 'year' ]; print "<option value=$yearID>$year\n"; } print "</select>\n"; print "</p>\n"; ?> Thank you! i have been trying to get this code to get a list of usernames from a database and i have now got that to work but when i try and save it it saves all the usernames from the drop down list and not just the one i have selected how can i get it to just use the one i have selected Code: [Select] <?php include "connect.php"; //connection string include("include/session.php"); print "<link rel='stylesheet' href='style.css' type='text/css'>"; print "<table class='maintables'>"; print "<tr class='headline'><td>Post a message</td></tr>"; print "<tr class='maintables'><td>"; // Write out our query. $query = "SELECT username FROM users"; // Execute it, or return the error message if there's a problem. $result = mysql_query($query) or die(mysql_error()); $dropdown = "<select name='username'>"; while($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($result)) { $dropdown .= "\r\n<option value='{$row['username']}'>{$row['username']}</option>"; } $dropdown .= "\r\n</select>"; if(isset($_POST['submit'])) { $name=$session->username; $yourpost=$_POST['yourpost']; $subject=$_POST['subject']; $to=$dropdown; if(strlen($name)<1) { print "You did not type in a name."; //no name entered } else if(strlen($yourpost)<1) { print "You did not type in a post."; //no post entered } else if(strlen($subject)<1) { print "You did not enter a subject."; //no subject entered } else { $thedate=date("U"); //get unix timestamp $displaytime=date("F j, Y, g:i a"); //we now strip HTML injections $subject=strip_tags($subject); $name=strip_tags($name); $yourpost=strip_tags($yourpost); $to=strip_tags($to); $insertpost="INSERT INTO forumtutorial_posts(author,title,post,showtime,realtime,lastposter,name) values('$name','$subject','$yourpost','$displaytime','$thedate','$name','$to')"; mysql_query($insertpost) or die("Could not insert post"); //insert post print "Message posted, go back to <A href='forum.php'>Forum</a>."; } } else { print "<form action='newtopic.php' method='post'>"; print "Your name:<br>"; print "$session->username<br>"; print "User to send to:<br>"; print "$dropdown"; print "Subject:<br>"; print "<input type='text' name='subject' size='20'><br>"; print "Your message:<br>"; print "<textarea name='yourpost' rows='5' cols='40'></textarea><br>"; print "<input type='submit' name='submit' value='submit'></form>"; } print "</td></tr></table>"; ?> MOD EDIT: Changed PHP manual link [m] . . .

How can I get the default option to echo BOTH the catid and category name while also listing all the other categories so that the records can be moved to a new category is needed? Any help will be appreciated. Thank you in advance. Hi i'm new to php. I want to get all the values of dropdown list on another page wether selected or not. I'm trying to sort this dropdown box. It reads from a directory, and lists the file name in the dropdown box. Here's the tricky part... the filename is listed differently in the dropdown than in the directory by using explode(). I want to sort it though since it's still being sorted by the directory listings... For example: Filename starts out as: 123_abc_567.pdf then gets listed as abc_123_567.pdf in the dropdown, but it's still getting sorted as if it were 123_abc_567.pdf How can I do that? Here's my code: // Define the full path to folder from root $path = "C:/Work_Orders/"; // Open the folder $dir_handle = @opendir($path) or die("Unable to open $path"); echo "<form method=\"POST\" action='".$_SERVER['PHP_SELF']."' name='selectworkorder'><select name='ordernumber2'>"; // Loop through the files while ($file = readdir($dir_handle)) { //Remove file extension $ext = strrchr($file, '.'); if($ext !== false) { $file = substr($file, 0, -strlen($ext)); } if($file == "." || $file == ".." || $file == "index.php" ) continue; //explode file name $changedordernumber = explode("_",$file); //put in new order $changedordernumber = $changedordernumber[1]."_".$changedordernumber[0]."_".$changedordernumber[2]; $changedordernumber=trim($changedordernumber,"_"); //list options echo "<option name='$file' value='$file'>$changedordernumber</option>\n"; } echo "</select><input type='submit' value='Change' name='submit'/></form></div>"; // Close closedir($dir_handle); Hey, I have the following coding: Quote <? $dbuser="*******"; $dbpass="*******"; $dbname="virtuda_db"; //the name of the database $chandle = mysql_connect("localhost", $dbuser, $dbpass) or die("Connection Failure to Database"); mysql_select_db($dbname, $chandle) or die ($dbname . " Database not found. " . $dbuser); $mainsection="license"; $query1="select name from license"; $result = mysql_db_query($dbname, $query1) or die("Failed Query of " . $query1); //do the query while($thisrow=mysql_fetch_row($result)) { $i=0; while ($i < mysql_num_fields($result)) { $field_name=mysql_fetch_field($result, $i); echo $thisrow[$i] . " "; //Display all the fields on one line $i++; } echo "<br>"; //put a break after each database entry } ?> How would I set up this so that instead of just "listing" them out on new lines, it would list the results into a drop down list? Thanks! Hey Guys, I know it may seem pretty simple, but im having trouble populating a drop down list. Here is my code at the moment, but what it's doing is displaying the names all in one value, where it should be in separate select values. *Note that i have only done it to the first one. See attachment. 'AntonMatt' are next to each other, they should be separate select values. Code: [Select] <? $id = $_GET['id']; $selectplayers="SELECT * FROM players WHERE club='$club' AND team='$team'"; $player=mysql_query($selectplayers); ?> <table class='lineups' width="560" cellpadding="5"> <tr> <td colspan="2">Starting Lineup</td> <td colspan="2">On the Bench</td> </tr> <tr> <td width="119"> </td> <td width="160"> </td> <td width="69"> </td> <td width="160"> </td> </tr> <tr> <td>Prop</td> <td><select name="secondary" style="width: 150px"> <option value='' selected="selected"><? while($rowplayer = mysql_fetch_array($player)) { echo $rowplayer['fname']; } ?></option> </select></td> <td>16.</td> <td><select name="secondary16" style="width: 150px"> <option value='' selected="selected">Secondary Position</option> </select></td> </tr> <tr> <td style="padding-top: 8px;">Hooker</td> <td style="padding-top: 8px;"><select name="secondary2" style="width: 150px"> <option value='' selected="selected">Secondary Position</option> </select></td> <td style="padding-top: 8px;">17.</td> <td style="padding-top: 8px;"><select name="secondary17" style="width: 150px"> <option value='' selected="selected">Secondary Position</option> </select></td> </tr> </table> </div> </div> Alright, so I have an xml file differences.xml that is being parsed in XML. This is what the xml looks like: <item code="lM" name="dog"> <cost>5000</cost> <Start>12/15/2010</Start> <End>01/13/2011</End> </item> <item code="lF" name="cat"> <cost>5000</cost> <Start>04/15/2010</Start> <End>04/23/2011</End> </item>[/ I want to have the item names (dog, cat) show in a dropdown menu so that I can select these items for editing before storing in my mysql database. This is the php code I have so far: <?PHP $xml = simplexml_load_file("differences.xml"); $object = $xml->xpath("//item"); echo '<SELECT name=object>'; foreach ($object['name'] as $key => $value) { echo '<OPTION value='.$value.'> '.$value; } echo '</select>'; ?> I do have a dropdown list but there are no values inside it (it is empty). Can anyone help me figure out why? I do have this code that does work which lists the items in plaintext (not in a dropdown) so hopefull this will help us out: <?PHP $xml = simplexml_load_file("differences.xml"); $object = $xml->xpath("//item"); $count = count($object); $i = 0; while($i < $count) { echo '<h1>'.$object[$i]['name'].'</h1>'; $i++; } ?> |
