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.

Chain Menu But The Menu Should Be Multiple Select Menu/list
I am looking for codes to be able to do the same thing with multiple select menu/list. PHP codes or javascripts codes are both fine. 1) javascript + php approach: Prefer to be javascripts codes to display the chain menu. I can use the php to get the all three levels menu data from the database, and assign these values to the javascript. 2) php codes only: Or use the pure php codes (the problem is if just using php codes then I have to submit the form to the server every time, when top level menu select changes to create new menu.).

Drop Down Menu Where The Items Are From A MySQL Select Query
I am just starting programming in PHP and wonder if it is possible to have a drop down menu where the items are from a MySQL select query. I am registering people for a weekend seminar and want to have a list of valid weekends to choose from on the form. Any pointers to scripts or PHP references that will help would be appreciated. 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.

What I am wondering is, if i stick with a list of say 4 possible status', how can i get whatever status the admin changes the record to to be "sticky" on the menu the next time he looks at the call, as opposed to the menu showing the default value set in dreamweaver?

Ordering A Drop-down Menu List
I am building a form that has a list/menu populating from the database. I'm using Dreamweaver to help code (which I know adds a mess), but I can usually edit it to do what I want. this is what it has: <option value="<?php echo $row_rsPhysician['specialtyID']?>"<?php if (!(strcmp($row_rsPhysician['specialtyID'], $row_rsPhysician['specialtyID']))) {echo "SELECTED";} ?>><?php echo $row_rsPhysician['specialtyName']?></option> <?php } while ($row_rsPhysician = mysql_fetch_assoc($rsPhysician)); $rows = mysql_num_rows($rsPhysician); if($rows > 0) { mysql_data_seek($rsPhysician, 0); $row_rsPhysician = mysql_fetch_assoc($rsPhysician); } ?> although if you have any generic code, I can play with it to get it to alphabetize my list. (the list is specialtyName and specialtyID is going into the database.

Array List Menu Problems
I am trying to store values from a List Menu into an sql database table as an ARRAY. However, when I select the multiple values from the form, it only stores the selected values as 'Array' in the SQL table.

Default Menu/List Option
I'm trying to create a form with three menus, each with the same values, and I have no problems there. Each menu has it's initial value set at "None" and then the rest of the values are pulled from my MySQL db. Everything works great if the user selects three values that came from the database or selects something from the first menu but not the other two and then submits. The problem is when the user doesn't select anything from the first menu. The next page reads the form value as "" instead of "None" but only for the first menu. The other three menus work fine. I know this isn't really php related, but this is usually such a helpful forum that I thought I'd post here before I start to search for some helpful html forum. Answers would be greatly appreciated, but so would corrections for my terminology (which I think I am confused about) or a good link to a place where I should be asking this question.

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.

Ignoring Multiple Values In <select> Menu
I have some code that grabs urls from a table in my database, and then displays them in a drop down menu as a basic search criteria.....However, the nature of the table dictates that a url will be entered numerous times (as its a table that stores transaction details about specific urls). My problem lies in that the code I'm using will display the url in the drop down menu 3 times (if three entries are in the database table). What I would ideally like would be for the url to be displayed only once in the drop down menu, but have the script return results for all urls that match the selected one when the form is posted.
