the above code for display a googleplayer on my site. i collect the src by query from database, & i stored them into a combo box.

that follows bellow

<select name='player'><option>Select</option>
//while loop start 
<option value='myvids/$al_pa[$al_c]'>$al_uf[$al_c]</option>
//while end
</select>

How are you passing the select box value? POST or GET?

Well yes. For one, that isn't PHP code. It's HTML with a couple of C style single line comments and two PHP variables that aren't inside a PHP block.

If that is your actual code, then there is your problem.
If it isn't, we would need to see the actual code to be able to help.

hi
sorry for my late. here its my code.

if ($att=="Video"){
 
            $query2=" SELECT * FROM albumvideo where albumid='$a_ref'";
            $result2=mysql_query($query2);
            echo mysql_error();
            $nume=mysql_num_rows($result2);//break 
 
            echo "<br><br><select name='player'  onchange='PlayIt(this.value)'><option>Select</option>";
                $sql_selobj=mysql_query("SELECT * FROM albumvideo WHERE albumid='$a_ref' ");//limit $eu, $limit
                while($row=mysql_fetch_array($sql_selobj)){
                    $obj_num=$row['objectno'];
                    $al_id[$al_c]=$row['albumid'];
                    $al_des[$al_c]=$row['description'];
                    $al_name[$al_c]=$row['name'];
                    $al_pa[$al_c]=$row['path'];
                    $al_uf[$al_c]=$row['userfile'];
 
                    echo"<option value='myvids/$al_pa[$al_c]'>$al_uf[$al_c]</option>";
 
 
 
 
 
                    $al_c=$al_c+1;
                    }
                    echo"</select>";
                    echo"<br><br><table align='center' height='300'><tr><td valign='middle'>";
 
                    echo<! -- Google Video HTML Code -- >
                    <embed style='width:400px; height:326px;' id='VideoPlayback'

Heya, chel-1.

Is your script generating any Javascript errors? Can you verify that PlayIt() is getting called?
