Dynamic Dropdown

[Benson Matheka]

I have created a dynamic drop down menu which ha worked very well. How can i resubmit whatever single thing i select back to a different table in the same database like i would in a mere html drop-down menu.

If you want to select a specific item in a drop down list you will have to draw it like below:

<SELECT><OPTION value='a'>a</option><OPTION value='b' SELECTED>b</option><OPTION value='c'>c</option><SELECT>
 

if you want to do it in php, it can be like this

<?php
 $selected='b';
 $arr[0]='a';
 $arr[1]='b';
 $arr[2]='c';
?>
 <SELECT>
<?php
 for($i=0;i<3;i++)
 {
  if($arr[i]==$selected) 
   $sel='SELECTED';
  else $sel='';
 ?>
  <OPTION value='<?=$arr[$i]?>' <?=$sel?>><?=$arr[$i]?></OPTION>
 <?php
 } 
?>
 </SELECT>
