Populating A Drop Down Via A File Directory?
I just wrote this code:
$dir = "/images/news";
print "<select name='file'>";
$dir = opendir($dir);
while (false !== ($file = readdir($dir))){
if (in_array($file, array(".", ".."))) continue;
print "<option value='$file'>$file</option>";
}
print "</select>";
But for some reason it is not populating. It instead echoes an empty drop down menu. Can anyone suggest anything?

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.

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() . "<br>$sql"); //use the or die(...) part ONLY IN DEVELOPMENT ?> <form action="action" method="post"> <select name="option"> <?php while ($row = mysql_fetch_array($result)) { echo "<option value="" . $row['model'] . "">" . $row['model'] . "</option> "; } ?> </select> <input type="submit"> </form> I've left out the connection details for obvious reasons... When I upload and try to test this, jus a blank drop down appears... there are definately fields in the column as I have tried the query on phpMyAdmin.

Populating Drop Down Fields
I am trying to populate a drop down menu with a mysql database. I was hoping to have a selection of months in the dropdown menu, based on date fields in my database when a user then selects a month, they will be brought to a new page that will have only the records created in that month. But in my database, the date is stored in this format: 2006-05-12 00:00:00 if you need to see my code, here it is: <? //database connection $query = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM casinocredit"); // start to print out the form echo "<form action="cats.php" method="POST"><select name="clients"><option value="" "selected">Select A Client</option>"; // loop through the records while ($row = mysql_fetch_array($query)) { echo "<option value="{$row['ID']}">{$row['ddate']}</option>"; }.........

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:

Populating Drop Down List With Selected Vaue
I have a drop down box and the "selected" value needs to be selected by a dynamic value that gets entered into the database, this is currently how im doing it: PHP Code: <?php                 if($modify_row[21] == "0") {                   print "<option value=" "></option>";                   print "<option value="1">Active</option>";                   print "<option value="0" selected>In-Active</option>";                 } elseif ($modify_row[21] == "1") {                   print "<option value=" "></option>";                   print "<option value="1" selected>Active</option>"; Its fairly straight forward, basically the option that is automatically selected needs to be the one coming from the database $modify_row[21].

File Upload - Directory Is Writable, File Is Not

So I set up a test script (included below) to test the directory structures all the way up to the file, and every directory appears to be writable, yet I can't write to the test file. I keep seeing suggestions to set the open_basedir directive in the php.ini file to solve this, but it's hasn't worked yet.

Remote File For A Drop-Down Menu
Im pretty new to PHP coding - and I'm not sure if this is enough to work with here. I've been working with a script that is used to search through member profiles. I need to add a drop-down field to the search form - but I'm not exactly sure what to do. An example of the current code ,that is used for a field similar to what I want to add, is this $TXT[12] = file("".$VAR[5]."/inc/txt/country.txt"); $TXT[14] = ""; foreach ($TXT[12] as $TXT[13]) { $TXT[13] = trim($TXT[13]); $SLT[4] = ""; if (isset($_GET['location'])) { if ($_GET['location'] == $TXT[13]) { $SLT[4] = " selected"; } } Basically, all I understand, thus far, with this section of coding is where the file it is retrieving the drop-down information is located. I don't fully understand the use of the numbers in the $TXT commands.

MySQL - .SQL Drop File Is About 2.5gigs.
The .SQL drop file is about 2.5gigs. Doing a simple query: select * from people where last_name like '%smith%' A query like this can take up to two minutes. I've spent hours reading these forums and other sites on the internet, and I've figured that I need to do a couple things: create some indexes and possibly create some partitions One thing I couldn't figure out though is what order to do these things. Is creating partitions even necessary? Also, I tried creating indexes on first_name and last_name columns, and it seems like it's just freezing.
