I would have the values 3,2 to work with. 3 being the value for pracarealist and 2 being the value for the staffed. If a user selects multiple checkboxes, the it falls over. I get values such as 2,4,5,6,2 - with 2,4,5,6 being in the pracarealist column and 2 bing the staffed. In this example I need to write 4 records into the db, i.e, 2,2 4,2 5,2 6,2 Any suggestions as to how to handle this? My code is below. Also I need to be handle if no selections are made (its not doing this correctly at present. <cfparam name="form.pracarealist" default="0"> <cfquery name="qInsertStaffPracAreas" datasource="#request.db_dsn#" username="#request.db_login#" password="#request.db_pwd#"> <cfloop index="pa" list="#form.pracarealist#"> INSERT INTO tbl_staffpracareas(practiceid,staffid) VALUES(#form.pracarealist#,#form.staffid#) </cfloop> </cfquery> -----Original Message----- From: Jim Wright [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Saturday, 25 November 2006 11:48 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: Re: multiple selection drop down list Pete wrote: > > You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to > your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near 'Law,2) INSERT > INTO tbl_staffpracareas(practiceid,staffid) VALUES(Planning L' at line 2 > I had assumed the practiceid would be a integer, but it looks like you are using a string... use '#pa#' in your query(or better yet, look at cfqueryparam). ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Introducing the Fusion Authority Quarterly Update. 80 pages of hard-hitting, up-to-date ColdFusion information by your peers, delivered to your door four times a year. http://www.fusionauthority.com/quarterly Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/message.cfm/messageid:261653 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.4
