Stuck On Dropdown Menu List, Could Use Some Guidence
I have a form with some drop down list/menus. I do a check for ommissions and if found display a message to re-try. What I need is a way to show which options where chosen when the user submitted the form the first time.
If someone could show me how to do the first one, I'm sure it's the same process for the second one. Here's the code:

[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". If you select either Brand A, B, C, D... 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.

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.).

2 Questions. Dropdown Menu And # Of Rows.
1. I have a table named pics and a column named name, just to let you know for use. I want to take the data from each row in the name column and insert it into a dropdown menu. I know how I could do it, but I would have to go: Code: <SELECT NAME="name" SIZE="1"> <OPTION SELECTED><?php $name[10 ?> <OPTION><?php $name[1] ?> <OPTION><?php $name[2] ?> <OPTION><?php $name[3] ?> <OPTION><?php $name[4] ?> <OPTION><?php $name[5] ?> <OPTION><?php $name[6] ?> </SELECT> but then I could make too many or too less. I want it to automatically adjust to the number of rows. 2.What is the code needed to find out how many rows are in a table?

Unwanted URLs In URL Dropdown Menu
I'm working on a PHP script and it has a user login, and the variables (username, password, id number) are passed via the URL bar. Is it possible to somehow not allow the visited page show up in the dropdown list of URLs in the browser? The problem is that people can view the list and easily see people's usernames and passwords. Example: http://www.somesite.com?username=john&password=12345 What I only want is: http://www.somesite.com/ I know that Hotmail.com doesn't show all of the pages that have been visited, all it shows in the list is hotmail.com, so I think it is possible to do this, but I don't know how.

Make A Dropdown-menu Filter?
I have a dropdown menu which is supposed to filter a table to show results for professionals, students or all. But I don't really know what I'm doing. This is what I have so far.

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.

Pagination And Dropdown Menu Used In Searching Mysql

I have that working correctly. I also only want to show 25 results per page. I have that working correctly. My problem is that when I combine the two it breaks the code. The pagination works fine without the dropdown and vice versa. I think it is due to the variable that is being used to choose the collumn in the sql query. Code:

Smarter Way Of Doing Dropdown List?
I've got a dropdown list that is acting as a filter on a table, so the user can select a value and the page is reloaded only showing the matching values from the database. Now when the page reloads the dropdown was set to 'all' as it was first in the list, even if I'd selected a different value, this was confusing for users, so I added an initial <option> field which pulled the correct value from $_GET (code below) - however this is a little odd as it means the value appears twice! Does anyone have a genius solution to this? I've seen a <select selected="yes"> sort of thing around, but I don't know how I can tell the php to add this value dynamically? <select size='1' name='occupation'> <option>".$_GET['occupation']."</option> <option value='All'>All</option> <option value='Student'>Students</a></option> <option value='Professional'>Professional</option> <option value='Hobbyist'>Hobbyists</option> </select>

Autopopulate Dropdown List From Database
An events-registration page with a form containing a dropdown list for upcoming events, the events will be pulled from a table which is updated by...? what i've gathered so far is that this can be done with PHP. I am a little unclear on the concept of how this is done. How does the updated information get input into the table? 1) can this be done (updating database) through a web interface by the client, or is it something i would have to do locally and then upload. If done by the client, can he delete/edit existing information--assuming he is not familiar with code. 2) what other things aside from html(good), sql(so-so), and php(newb) will i have to know? i've seen a lot of good tutorials here and will have access to the necessary software. I just want to know if there is anything else i should know before i dive in head first without testing the PHP water, which i assume is frigid.
