Select List/Menu Using PHP And MYSQL
Here is my code:
<select name="country" class="sidelinks">
<?php
do
{
?>
<option value="<?php echo $row_AllCountries['country_ID']." ";?>"<?php if ($row_AllCountries['country_ID'] = $acountry) { echo "selected"; }?> >
<?php echo $row_AllCountries['countryname'];?></option>
<?php
}
while ($row_AllCountries = mysql_fetch_assoc($AllCountries));
?>
</select>
A few words to describe:
-$row_AllCountries['country_ID'](get from MySQL) is a unique country ID number
-$row_AllCountries['countryname'](get from MySQL) is the name of the country
-$acountry is the country ID number that i want to be selected when the form loads
I have all the values and country names named OK...the only problem is that when the form loads it selects the last country.

I am using the book "Build your Own Database Driven Website Using PHP & MySQL" to get me started, but also need recommendations for a general primer to php.

Flat File List Style Menu
I'm trying to build a Menu Building out of flatfiling with a section to add new areas to it. The idea behind it is to have a header for each section (as the top order list item) then each one below is a link of that category. I already figured I'm buillding it with limits (20 items Max per heading) and that to do it I will simply have each Heading/links in it be a new row in the document. example row Tips tips.php Tips on Php, file tips File Tips tips/files.php, etc etc With the first item of each row being the Heading and each other being the ones under it My question is What delimiters should I use to seperate in the row (I need to separate each item by 1 delimiter and then in each row separate the href, alt, name) Secondly for rewrtiign it should I simply write it so each time it rewrites the whole file or should I try and do string replacing and do modify sorta deal.

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.
Mysql Php Dynamic Menu
I am trying to write a script that will create dynamically a menu from MySQL database. The database table is a product categories table and it has the folowing filed: category_id, parent_category_id, category_name (some other fileds are there as well but these are enough to figure out the logic) I know that I have to store all the product_categories records in a temp array and then some how go through them and store the level of each record in the menu.... If you have done something like that I suppose you know what I mean and I would much appreciate to give me a hint here ... I had a look in the phpLayersMenu from sourceforge but it is really advanced OO code and I cannot understand the logic.... My target is to create a Tree menu with no pre - defined number of records...

[PEAR:QuickForm] Dynamically Change A Dropdown Menu According To Another Menu?
I've been using QuickForm for a few months now and I am now given a new challenge: I've got a search form with a dozen of dropdown menus, the first dropdown menu being "Brand".

Z, the second dropdown menu "Model" must be dynamically changed to model AA, AB, AC, AD..., according to the models manufactured by the brand selected in the first box. I've seen that done on quite a few sites, but never found if QuickForm had a quick & clean way of doing that.

Search Drop Down Menu To Choose Mysql Table
I have currently made a simple PHP search script which, when data is entered in a text box and it's submitted, it queries a table in a MYSQL database and returns information. This works.

MySQL+PHP Select One Row
I'm sure it has been asked a thousand times before, but still: How can I access a particular row in my MySQL table via PHP? The background is just to update the values of one row in the table via a html form with the old values already filled in. What I tried so far ist sth like this: $row=mysql_query('SELECT * FROM names WHERE ID=$entry'); for ($i = 0; $i < mysql_num_fields($row); $i++) { echo("<td>$row[$i]</td> "); } The mistake should be that mysql_query does not return a vector, but still a table... Does anybody have a good idea how to solve that problem?
