Remember Selected Value DropDown
I am attempting to have a drop down menu that displays url from 1 table called links the same table also contains a name for the url. i.e. google.com = name and http://www.google.com = url The value of just the url from links is stored in a separate table called users in a field named search after form is submitted by user. Everything Posts correctly except when go back to edit the record and submit the form the drop down box does not retain the value of what had been previously selected although it is the correct record until form is updated when whatever value is currently in the drop down list will update the record.
I know the code is doing exactly what it is told to do, because I have no functionality in it to recall the value from the field search in the users table. I don't know if it is something I would have to add to the array or option value. I can get it to work if it is all hard coded, but I am attempting not to do this. I am pretty new to php mysql and any help is greatly appreciated.
This is the code I am working with that came mostly from a tutorial. PHP Code:

How To Get Form To Remember Selected Option?
I am now trying to make a form remember which color (a select list) they selected before pressing any of the submit buttons. I entered this code into the form: <select name="color"> <option value="red">red</option> <option value="blue">blue</option> </select> The submit is a GET type. For example, if the user selects blue and then clicks on either one of the "submit" buttons, I want the form to remember/show the blue option. Right now the select list always goes back to red, the first choice. I tried doing a <?php echo $red; ?> and <?php echo $blue; ?> for the option value, but this does not work since the select list needs a value.

Php Dropdown - Selected?
i'm using this to pull information from a database and display it in a dropdown list. The problem is I am using the name code when I goto the "Update" page, but i'm not sure how to add the "selected" field, that way what ever I saved in the database will load. Example: I goto add and it add's the "id" of 7 to the field, when I load the page again it auto's back to 1 instead of clicking in-to 7 as thats whats already there... = ) Code:

Dropdown Menu <selected Name="...
I have a dropdown menu like this one: <select name="country" tabindex="6" id="select_country"> <option value="">- Country List -</option> <?php $query = "SELECT * FROM country ORDER BY country ASC"; $result = mysql_query($query) or die('Error, query failed'); while ($row = mysql_fetch_array ($result)) { $country = $row['country']; ?> <option value="<?php echo $country ?>"><?php echo $country ?></option> After I have selected one country and I hit the submit button it go back to the default value in the box, what I want is to show the selected value in box until I selected another value. If the default value is Australia when I start this page, I then select USA and hit the submit button it reset to the default value "Australia", but I want it to show USA as long I not select anything else. I have tried to use session in selected="<?php echo $_SESSION['country']; ?>" but it didnt work.

Print All Selected Items From Dropdown??
I have a program that allows users to select a 'New Graduate' membership, and for each one selected, they get a free tshirt. I've got that working using a 'is_new_grad' function that I created. So, if they select 2, they see 2 dropdowns to select the sizes of them. It then sends an email w/ the membership info and the shirt sizes selected. However, when the email is being sent, it's only returning the size of the LAST item selected in from the drop-downs. Example: if I sign up for four of these memberships and select four different tshirt sizes (1 Medium, 1 Lg, 1 XL, and 1 XXL), the info in the email is all XXL: Code:

Remember Input Value
I have a form, after users submit it, if they leave the required fields blank, I need to let them go back to the page and fill those fields. How can I remember the values the users already filled so they don't need to fill the same fields again? Is there any other ways to do this except using cookie? Is there any 'forward' or 'redirect' function can do this?

Trying To Remember A Function's Name
I am drawing a total blank on this... I'm sure that I've seen it in javascript or PHP... I'm looking for a function that takes a variable (such as an array) and reduces it to a string which can be reconstituted. I remember that it does slightly more work than needed because all the types were specifically indicated even when they were self evident, but I can't remember the function's name. There is some unencoding function to go in reverse.

Secure Way To 'remember' Users?
So far, for my site, there's an option for users to be 'remembered' when they login, so they don't have to login again on a second visit to the page, etc. You've seen those before, they're on all the big websites.. The first version included storing the user's name and id in a cookie, which was checked for at the top of every page. If the cookie was found, its data was exploded and put into $_SESSION. This was a really, really bad way to do it (since a user could just edit the cookie on their browser, imagine what'd happen if I'd stored 'access level' with the data), but I was young and stupid at the time.

Sessions - Remember A User Is On The Site
I am building a members section for my site and I was curious what the best way to go about remember users would be. The site I'm working on is mainly an information site which will have the ability for people to login and view reviews on products and also allow manufacturers to login and upload information about their products. I was curious how I should remember a user is on my site. Currently, I have a $_SESSION[''] variable that remembers them but when they open a new browser it forgets them. Also this posses problems if they are still viewing my site but want to have 2 browsers open while on my site. Is this the best method? Also considering they login - they will have to relogin everytime they come back to my site. This makes me wonder if I should use cookies. I have never used them before. Would they be the best solution? Are they secure? Any information would be great.

Remember Form Settings W/cookies
I have a sort script that i use to sort the results on a page. And the form sets a cookie and goes from there. It work all great. But the problem that i need to fix is remember the settings in the form. <form action ="list.php" method = "post"> View by: <select name="view"> <option value="title">Name</option> <option value="views">Popular</option> <option value="date">Newest</option> </select> Order by: <select name="order"> <option value="DESC">Descending</option> <option value="ASC">Ascending</option> </select><br /><br /> Per page: <select name="per"> <option value="1">1</option> <option value="2">2</option> <option value="5">5</option> </select> <input type="submit" name="sort" value=" Sort " /> </form> Now when you submit this form it will set a cookie with your "view", "order", and "per" selection. What i want it to do is after you set that cookie and come back to this form to have them settings remembered in the form. Basicly i guess add the selected="selected" to the option script in the form.
