This would be a long and time comsuming task and would appreiciate it if someone knew of a script around that does exactly that.

Dynamic Combo Box
Iam working with a php, mysql program, In this program I have let's say 3 combo box (select tags) one for student_id , one for first name and the other for last name, I already got data from mysql using( select * from student) and put them in these combos, but I need onchange of each one to execute another select statement (for example if we change first name select * from student where firstname=....), so I need to clear the other combos and refill them again according to the new query. so, I'll obtain all the students whose first name=... here we need to call a function that makes combo clear using javascript (form1.fn.options.length=0) and also execute a new query(select * from student where fn=..) and refill combos again(new option(....)) my questions are: 1. do I need to call php function or javascript function onchange of select tag and if php how can i do that? 2.how can we take form variables (value of select) and put them in sql statement?

Dynamic Text Boxes
I have a form where field techs can close out service calls, Time in, time out, work done, who the tech is....ect... Currently I have 20 fields for parts..... Part1 / Part1QTY....and so on to Part10 / Part10QTY.... the form emails, and it also feeds data into MySQL... so everything is working fine... What I would like to do, is stream line it...so there is only 2 fields...part_number and qty....and when techs needs to enter more parts then click on a button that creates 2 new sets of text boxes for input.... thus allowing me to have them enter more the just 10 parts and qty's. I thought about, maybe having a secondary form on my HTML page, with different sets of submit buttons, and they can enter 1 part at a time... but I could not get the secondary form Submit button to not clear the data in the primary form...so that didn't work for me.! I'm am basically stuck here... there maybe one or two other issues I have...but those are not so critical. I do have a great deal of MS Access experience but this PHP is a totally different monster. For those who know access, it's very easy to add a new record in a subform and just keep adding records...which is sort of what I'm trying to do here.

Dynamic Listy Boxes
we are trying to buid some dynamic list boxes. Our code that generates the listbox creates a string containing the list box definition and the last line of the file is echo $outstr. When we execute this, the list box works fine. Now when we embed it into am html page in this way: <?php include statuslistbox.php ?>, we get errors that say "constant statuslistbox.php not defined" The listbox define file has the php brackets top and bottom. The embeding html has no brackets other than the ones show above. It seems to make no difference if the calling file is a php extension html extension.

Dynamic Drop Down Boxes
I am trying to figure out how to simulate the onChange() function from JavaScript with PHP. What I am wanting to accomplish is to generate a second drop down select menu based upon the option selected in a first select menu. I know this can be done using $_POST or through data stored in my mySQL database. What I am looking for is a way to generate DROP DOWN 2 on-the-fly when the selection in DROP DOWN 1 is changed (like with the onChange() function available through JavaScript).

PHP/MySQL Combo
How come sometimes I get the following error: Fatal error: out of dynamic memory in yy_create_buffer() in Unknown on line 0 My code works most of the time, its a combination of PHP and mySQL, i have no function named "yy_create_buffer". And the worst problem with this error message, is that when that error comes up, its the ONLY thing that comes up. Other error messages at least they show up inside my page and they say what I specify the error messages to say. This type of error message would look totally unprofessional on the site I'm developing and I'm curious is there anyway to prevent this or somehow pinpoint the cause. I'm starting to lose faith in PHP/mySQL . I'm starting to doubt whether the PHP environment is effective for a search engine which searches what will be a relatively large database.

Combo Box Value On Page Reload
I am new to php and mySQL so this is probably something very basic that I'm missing. Basically, on the page I have 2 combo boxes but 1 of them is not getting the value passed when the page is reloaded so the database can be updated. I am echoing the field names passed and the field "theDriver" is there but it's empty. I've include the code parts where I believe the problem should be but I'm stumped and I've been trying to solve this for 2 days without success. Would someone mind examing the following code and tell me what I've done wrong? Following code constructs the combo box on the page from a MySQL table: <?PHP $table = "tblEmployees"; $Link = mysql_connect ($host, $user, $password); $Query = "select concat(empID,' ',empFirstName,' ',empLastName) as full_name from $table WHERE empTitle = 'Driver'"; $results = mysql_db_query($database, $Query, $Link); ?> <b>Driver:</b> <select name = "theDriver" size="1"> <Option Value=" ">Select One:</option> <?PHP for($u=0;$u<mysql_num_rows($results); $u++) { $driver=mysql_result($results,$u,'full_name'); ?> <option value="<?PHP echo($ID); ?>"><? echo($driver); ?></option> <?PHP } ?> //end php </select> When Page is reloaded the following code is run but the combo box titled "theDriver" is empty foreach($_POST as $field => $value) { echo $field; //field names from form echo "; "; if ($field == "theDriver") { echo " - here's the driver for ya: "; $$field = strip_tags(trim($value)); echo $$field; $pos = strpos($driver, ";"); echo "<br> the ; is in pos $pos <br>";.......
