Dropdown List - Trying To Get Default Populated From Db.
Nooby question but when I try and get this to work (it should identify which rows in the database have GK, MID, DEF, FWD against them and then put SELECTED into the option value to give a default of what the entry is currently) it just adds SELECTED to all the results as if $row["Position"] is returning true against all four conditions?

Open Popup Window When Page Is Loaded If A Field Is Populated
Would it be possible to open a popup window on loading the instruction page but only when the critical information section of the page contains text? The popup window could either contain the contents of the critical information section or just a visual warning that such information exists on the main page. I have a pretty good knowledge of VBA but sadly my knowledge of php and javascript is very limited.

Dynamic List Populated By MySQL Table
I am building my first php page and I've ran into problems trying to create a dynamic drop down list for an INSERT page. My page is based on this example from mysql.com. I want to populate the list from a table in MySQL, but when I test the page the list only contains the first record. If anyone can help me out, or recommend an easy way to create dynamic menus/lists, I will be very grateful. This code appears above the FORM ACTION: $NearMajorCity = mysql_query("SELECT NearMajorCity_ID, NearMajorCity FROM NearMajorCity"); This code is within the FORM: <SELECT NAME="NearMajorCity" SIZE=1> <OPTION SELECTED VALUE="">Select One <OPTION VALUE="">--------- <?php while ($NearMajorCity = mysql_fetch_array($NearMajorCity)) { $NearMajorCity_ID = $NearMajorCity["NearMajorCity_ID"]; $NearMajorCity = $NearMajorCity["NearMajorCity"]; echo("<OPTION VALUE='$NearMajorCity_ID'>$NearMajorCity "); } ?> </SELECT> I want to be able to view the names of the Major Cities in the list, but I want the NearMajorCity_ID inserted into the table.

MySQL Dropdown
Is there a way to make a dropdown by getting the options directly from the database? And I'm using this as a form so it has to have a name so I can call upon the value and do something to it. Example to what I want to do: - I have a database table named members and in that table, it has 3 columns - name, age, sex. What I want to do is make a dropdown inside a <form> using the data from the database. And then when the person selects the name of the member and presses submit, it deletes the row with that name from the table and the database.

Dynamic Dropdown And Hardcode Dropdown In Select Form
I have plenty of examples of dynamic dropdown choices but none of hardcoded dropdown choices.

Below is the code I have to add work on a given task. Perhaps I actually need to "Update" a job as opposed to "add". But the problem of the moment is I can't seem to hardcode one set of my options.

Pagination And Dropdown Menu Used In Searching Mysql
I am working on building a database made for searching. I have a text search and a dropdown box used for searching different table collumns (lets people search for certan criteria). 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:

Any Reason Why $_FILES['userfile']['error'] Wouldn't Be Populated?
I am in the middle of writing an image upload script and am limiting the size of uploads via upload_max_filesize. This all seems to be working well, and if I try and upload a bigger file then I get an UPLOAD_ERR_INI_SIZE sat in $_FILES['userfile']['error']. All hunkey dorey. However, in my testing there are one or two large files that cause problems. PHP appears to abort the upload early as it should, but when my script runs, $_FILES isn't populated at all?! I have tried to narrow down the difference in these file but I can't seem to find anything definate. All the ones that fail are AVI or WMV files if that gives any clue, but even if I rename them to MPG (others of which work ok), and check the MIME type being sent up has also changed to mpg, then they still fail as before. I have sent bigger and smaller files all ok, so it's not size. I can't see anything in the filename itself that would cause problems.

User Needs To Press The Submit Button Before The Iframe Is Populated.

The thing is I take the string that has been input ($keywords) and auto enter it into my google search box of which the result of this search is displayed in an iFrame under the search results from MySQL. The only problem is that the user needs to press the submit button before the iframe is populated.

What Is Better - One Field Or Eight - Mysql Bit Testing

There are three ways of storing this information in my mysql database A. add eight fields (tiny integer) B. add one tiny integer and create a function in PHP that can translate the number stored into a eight boolean values (the bits) C. create a table which list ItemID Associated characteristics In C, you will only list the characteristics that are true for the item listed. Option B is the most efficient in MySql, but would you recommend it when creating a PHP website. The problem is that the user needs to enter them with a nice webform, etc...

Using PHP In A MySql Table Field
I'm calling text from an mysql database which includes php. I have php echoing values in the database entry for concatenation purposes but when I write it to a page it just writes out the php code in the page source and the browser ignores it. Can I actually put php in a text field in mysql, do I have to format it or change the field type or how should I be approaching this? database entry: some text and <?php echo $value ?> more text php calling the text from the database: $SQL = "SELECT overview_content FROM  overview u        WHERE u.ov_id = '$ov_type'   " ;   $u = @mysql_query($SQL) or die("Couldn't execute query @mysql_query($SQL).");   $row =@mysql_fetch_array($u) ;     $the_overview = $row['overview_content']; code is working fine and writing out the correct values, the php within the database entry is just being ignored.
