^^^^^^^^
notice the addition of the DISTINCT keyword. this will keep this code
useable when you get more than one type of restaurant for each cuisine type
> $query .= "FROM Restaurant ";
> $query .= "ORDER BY Restaurant.Cuisine ASC ";
if($result=mysql_query($query, $db) OR DIE ("died at query")) {
$select="<select name=\"cuisine\">\n";
while(list($cuisine)=mysql_fetch_array($result)) {
$select.="<option value=\"$cuisine\">$cuisine</option>\n";
}
$select.="</select>";
}
