I am having some problems populating a drop down menu called province with data.
This is the error I am receving:
ADODB.Recordset error '800a0cc1'
Item cannot be found in the collection corresponding to the requested name or ordinal.

I am sure there is data in the DB. I have attached the file.
Anyone know how to create a drop down menu where the user can enter text
also?
If they do not want to choose an answer from the drop down menu, the
users can just enter their own answers in the drop down box. Anyone
know if this is possible?

View Replies View Relatedi'm having some difficulty coding my dropdown menu's on a page, i want the contents of one to be dependent upon the value of the selected option of another.
View Replies View Relatedcan someone give me an example code for how to retrieve the selected value from a drop down menu in ASP. i have been trying something like this:
<%response.write(request.form("selected"))%>
but it doesn't display anything.
I have a form that I would like to create. My primary concern is 2 drop-down menus. The contents of the second drop down menu depend on the selection of the first drop-down menu.
For example: In the first drop-down menu, I want to select a department, and after a department is selected, I want to be able to select one of that department's employees from the second drop-down menu. Of course the content of the employee menu will depend on which department was selected.
I've been experimenting a little bit with my Access database, but how I design that really depends on suggestions I get here, so let me know what you think.
EDIT: I should also mention that the contents need to be read from the Access database, rather than storing everything in a javascript array. In this way, I can have Human Resources add new departments and employees via a web form so that I don't have to manually edit code every day.
I have an access database called contact.mdb and I have linked to it just fine and used the records held in it to populate a datagrid and can update and delete records.
I don't understand databases that much but I would like to read the values into a drop down menu which are held in the field 'ID' from a table called 'courses'. I have a feeling it is something to do with data sets but am not too hot on these either.

How do I use the 'option value' command in ASP like you can do in HTML; so there is a list of languages for one to be selected. If someone could amend my code to give me a couple of language options so I can get an idea of how it is down.

I am creating a "search by category" page using a drop down menu. I am very new at SQL/ASP and am having trouble with the correct syntax for sorting my search results.

{ str_err += ("
Please enter your title, for example Mr or Mrs") }

How do I get a drop down menu to show Please select one when a form opens up? The menu will be populated with a database field but when someone creates a new record I would like for all the drop down menus to say Please select one.
So if nothing is selected from that menu then when they INSERT the new record into the database it will store a Null value for that new field in that field.

I am currently working on a project and i need to have drop down menus on a form which include data from tables in a database. There will be a number of drop down menus on this form as well as text boxes. I'm struggling with the code and need to know how to code a drop down menu that would include all the records from a drop down menu.
Is it possible to use all the values in the form, including the drop down menus to insert the values into a relational database. I'm assuming i would have to use variables to pass the information into the database using an SQL insert, but i am once again unsure how to code this.
Drop Down Menu as follows:
<select name="county" id="county" >
<option value=''> Select County</option>
<option value='Antrim'> Antrim</option>
<option value='Armagh'> Armagh</option>
<option value='Carlow'> Carlow</option>
</select>
Problem is when there is an error with one of the other fields and the press reloads the county is reset to Select County how can i remember this value.

I have dynamcally populated a drop down menu with data from an access
database using ASP. The values seem fine, however when i pass them to
the next page (using form get method) the whitespaces in the values
are ignored.
For example with <option value=jim jones> then only "jim"
gets passed to the next page not "jim jones". I have viewed the source
created on the dynamic page and the values are populated fine, but
passing to the next page seems to be problematic...
i have a page which displays a list of events searched for by a particular date. we usually have a lot of events and i don't want the user to have scroll through all of them, especially if they're interested in a particular type of event.
i have created a dynamic drop down menu which consists of all the event types. how can i got about displaying the events returned by the query to a specific event for that date.
so for example, if some one searches for 03/08/2005, they will initially get a list of all events for that day. if they click on "Closed" from the drop down menu, it will display all the "Closed" events for 03/08/2005.
