Populating Multiple Drop Down Boxes From Mysql Table
Am having a problem with a dynamic, multiple drop down box query. If I run the code with only one select, it populates fine. If I run it with 2 selects then only the first drop down box populates - the second drop down box is empty. Am wondering if I need to put the query into an array and populate the boxes from there.

Populating Drop Down And Table
I have a database with the following fields. Name | Company | Date values in each column could be repeated, or not. as in there could be several same names with the same company with different dates, or different names with same company. How do I populate a table with this info and have drop down boxes, so that I can narrow down the search? For example: Name | Company | Date 12 | 1 | 1929 13 | 1 | 1929 14 | 1 | 1929 12 | 2 | 1929 12 | 4 | 1929 13 | 1 | 1941 12 | 6 | 1929 So if in the drop down I select '12' under name, only those entries with 12 are shown, and then I can further sort it by selecting only '1' under Company. Hope I'm clear, I manage to complicate things when I post them.

Populating Drop Down From MySQL
I am trying to populate a drop down menu of MySQL data using PHP and I have hit a snag. I think its probably something simple that a freah pair of eyes could pick out right away that I am just not seeing... For some reason only the "firstname" part of the data is populating in the drop down and I can't figure out why. When I try to make changes to the echo lines to correct this, nothing shows up including the "firstname" data. Code:

Auto Populating A Drop Down Box
Basically I'm setting up a website which needs an populated drop down box made up from all fields in a specific column of a table in a mysql db.... Here's the code I've made up using various tutorials.... <?php $user = ""; $host = "" $password = "" $dbName = "" /* make connection to database */ mysql_connect($host, $user, $password) OR DIE( "Unable to connect to database"); mysql_select_db($dbName); //did you forget this line? $sql = "SELECT model FROM usedVehicles"; $query = mysql_query($sql) or die(mysql_error() .

Auto Populating Multiple Drop Downs.
im trying to create two dropdowns, i need the first one to be the category and the second one to be the subcategory. The category drop down autopopulates with the correct info from the database. and uses the table "category", the value of each drop down is represented by the "cat" field in the table (cat is basically and integer id number) and "Category" is used as what the user actually sees in the drop down (category is the actual word of the category). Once the category is selected i would like to have the sub category auto populate with everything that has the same values as the selected category (cat) Here is a break down of how the tables work. Table 1 Name: "category" Fields for Table 1: "cat" (the id number), "category" ( the actual name of the category) Table 2 Name: "subcategory" Fields for Table 2: "cat" (corresponds with the cat id from table 1 to pull the correct data), "subc" (the basic id of the subcategory), "subcat" the actual name of the subcategory. so the way i see it, have a normal drop down populated by a php query. then on change, populate subcategory drop down where cat = cat and display sub category.

Populating The Drop Down And Pressing The Submit Button
1. The first is I have two drop down menus. The first is "year" and the second is "mfr". When a user selects a year from the drop down it then populates the second drop down, mfr, from the MySQL database. Theat is working fine. But the problem I am having is the "submit" button (which I have labeled as "browse"). When I click it. Nothing happens, no action tacks place. I have looked over the code and I can't figure it out. (See Code Box 1 Below). 2. Right now the "mfr" drop down is populated by the MySQL database and reads with a list like "Acr", "Alp", etc. These are abreviations. I need to set up an array to have them instead read the entire mfr name. Example: Instead of "Acr" it needs to be "Acura". Instead of "Alp" it needs to be "Alpine". I need these full names to appear in the drop down. I know I need to do something like this (See Code Box 2 Below) but I can't get my finger on it. Code:

Currently I have got the script outputting all the details and one material then in the next block of data, repeating the details with a different material. What I would like to achieve is having 1 block of data with a list of all materials in that, instead of the repeat, but sadly I can't know exactly how to do it.

How Do You Insert A Value From Drop Down List To SQL Table?
I am a bit new to PHP and SQL so this may seem like a dumb question.

When a user goes onto this page and either leaves the default value or selects a value from the drop down list and presses the submit button, I would like that selected value to be stored into a database which I have already created in SQL. Just to let you know that I can do the above using a text field but just don't know how to do it with drop down list. If your going to explain any coding then it may help if I give you the names of certain items that are involved. Database is called "Company" Field within database is called "Name"

Drag From Table Listing And Drop Into Form?
I am looking to optimize a simple-sounding task that is actually quite inefficient for me. I have built a form with 32 fields; each field should be capable of accepting one of 5,000+ possible values. Currently, I use an SQL query to load the 5,000 values into a variable, building a <select><option> list. I then load these massive drop-downs into the form. As you can imagine, while the data is properly transferred, it takes forever for this page to render... it is over 4MB big! I need something more efficient... In my mind's eye, I picture downloading the 5,000 values once into a table on the right-side of the page; then clicking each desired value and dragging it to the form on the left, dropping it into any of the available 32 fields.

Select From Drop List To Fill Table Column With Text -- HOW ?
I want viewers to compare state laws on a single subject. Imagine a three-column table with a drop-down box on the top. A viewer selects a state from the list, and that state's text fills the column below. The viewer can select states from the drop down lists above the other two columns as well. If the viewer selects only one, only one column fills. If the viewer selects two states, two columns fill. Etc. I could, if appropriate, have a separate htm page with the text for each state -- california.htm for example. When the viewer selects California from the drop down list, the column below would "fill" with California.htm. Or, I could conceivably use a text or mysql database with two fields for each record: state_name and law_text -- but it would probably be easier to use separate htm files, since there will only be about 20 states involved, and the "database" would never have a large number of records. The table width would be 100% and each cell would be @33% My site is designed with FP 2002 and runs on Apache/FreeBSD. I have just had Apache-ASP installed but I have not yet configured or used the module.

Using PHP To Sort Data In MySQL Table 1 By Values In Table 2
I have a MySQL database with 2 tables in it. products and prices.. Products has a field in it called 'prodno'. Prices has a field in it called 'prodid'. There is one of each item in products and each product has it's own unique 'prodno' There are multiple instances of each product's pricing in prices.. One for each price.. So if a product had multiple prices depending on quantity it would have an entry for each price.. Example: id = 1 prodid = 7001 qty = 300 price = 12.5 id = 2 prodid = 7001 qty = 400 price = 15.5 I was wondering if I could query the database getting info from the products table but sort it according to the prices in the prices table. Kinda like doing a "SELECT * FROM products" ordering it by the lowest price value from each item.. This is all very confusing to me, and I'm the one writing it. Let's try one last time.. Query the database selecting * from products (I plan on using all the info in products) and ordering them by the lowest price for each item in the prices table. I've tried sorting the results of just a basic SELECT * FROM products using Javascript and PHP but with pagination in the results it makes it a bit hard.
