Next value

[zek2005]

Hi!!!

I've made a form with a 'select' statement through a

echo('<select name="res">');
echo('<option selected value=""> Select option</option>");');
while($row = mysql_fetch_array($resumen))
{
echo('<option value="' .$row[id]. '">'
..strtoupper($row[titulo_esp]). '</option>');
}
echo('</select>');

The user selects an option and a text is displayed. Now, I want to
insert a "previous" and a "next" button so the user can navigate from
here without selecting any other value from the "select" form.

Example: The posible 'id' values are: 1,4,5,7,8,9. The user chooses 5,
so if he press the "next" button he will navigate to the page with the
id#7 and if the user selects "previous" he will go to the id#4.

I tried to use the funtion next(), but I don't know how to do it.

Can anyone help me with this problem?

Thanks in advance!

You should really do this with JavaScript. PHP could do it, but it
would be really slow.

next() is for arrays only, which advances the array internal pointer.

To go about this using javascript:
- Give each element an sequential ID.
- On the press of next, select current id + 1 (using dom).

Hi!!!

echo('<option selected value=""> Select option</option>");');
you should fix this. spurious characters between options will cause wierd
things to happen in some browsers.

echo('<option selected value=""> Select option</option>');

while($row = mysql_fetch_array($resumen))
{
echo('<option value="' .$row[id]. '">'
and use quotes an an array index when using it in a function.

..strtoupper($row['titulo_esp']). '</option>');
}
echo('</select>');
