Drop Down Populated By Database
I currently have a php file that pulls a query from the field "category" from my database. this file is called category.php. I am trying to populate a drop down box in another page (called add_subpage.php) from the results of the category page. the code below is on the add_subpage.php file: (It was my best guess and does not work) <select name="category"> <option value="CAT"<?php include 'category.php' ?>></option</select> Can anyone tell me how to make this drop down populate from the category php file?

Creating Two Drop Down Boxes On My Html Form That Are Populated With Data
I'm interested in creating two drop down boxes on my html form that are populated with data from a mysql database. The data for the first box is course titles and the data for the second is course sections. So far this is no problem. BUT, since the data in both select boxes is related. I would like the user to be able to select either/or and have the other select box automatically pick the associated value from the mysql database.

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.

Drop-down From Query Results
I've got a form that pulls data from a MySQL database and populates the form and allows the user to edit the info and submit the changes to the database. All works fine when I'm working with straight text boxes (which comprises the majority of the form). The problem arises when I'm dealing drop-down select boxes. Essentially, what I want to do is to populate the drop-down with all choices but have the one "selected" that was previously in the database. The MySQL tables look like this: leave_type TABLE which has leave_type_id and leave_type_name absence_actions TABLE which has absence_id, personnel_id, leave_type_id, etc... So, I'm looking at grabbing all of the results of the leave_type table to populate the dropdown and then grabbing a specific row from the absence_actions table and making the dropdown "selected" based on the leave_type_id from both tables. Does anyone have any idea on how to code something like this. This seems like a common problem but I can't find anything on google. Perhaps I don't know how to phrase my query.

Display Results In Drop Down Box
I have a form that list a number of drop down boxes. And each time, I add a new option, I have to update the form again. I'd like to possibly create a table for all of the options, and then just have the form read the table and display them in the drop down box. The goal is to have code that I don't have to change each time, but rather just add/update the database as needed.

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.

Two Different Drop Downs From MySQL

How can i get them together?

".$selected.">".ucfirst($data['name'])."</option> "; } while ($data = mysql_fetch_array($result)); } else { echo ""; }; mysql_close($db);?> </select> I hope it's clear what i mean. I do not make connection twice, but the rest is similair except for the tablename of course.

PHP And MYSQL Drop Down List
I need a script to create a drop down list which has vehicle makes. The vehicle make list should feed a vehicle model list so when I select a make all the models for the make appear in the model list. I have a make table which has MAKE_ID, make NAME and a model table which has MODEL_ID, MAKE_ID and model NAME. I tried using a script using javascript array but wherever I have a query that pulls the NAME from the database there's always a carriage return after the NAME which messes up the javascript array. I'd rather do it all with PHP if possible. If not please give me one that works and I don't have to spend hours troubleshooting.

Drop For Cronjobs With Mysql

My question is since this takes so long to complete and the site becomes slow as a dog. Should I look at another language to run the updates on mysql?

I've spent hours reading these forums and other sites on the internet, and I've figured that I need to do a couple things: create some indexes and possibly create some partitions One thing I couldn't figure out though is what order to do these things. Is creating partitions even necessary? Also, I tried creating indexes on first_name and last_name columns, and it seems like it's just freezing.
