Chris -
You're getting already getting plenty of answers to this question - I only have one
suggestion, which is that if you're not doing it already, just write a function or
create an object that makes a dropdown box. I have a function and a class that I use
for creating
dropdowns. Well, several functions... one that queries a db with db, table, id field,
label field, etc. and produces a dropdown with options having one value and labels
having another, one that accepts an array or a 2-dimensional array, and one that
accepts a numeric range
as arguments etc. etc. It will save you a ton of time... (rather than intruding into
your html form with a long php statement, why not just call: <? select_array("name",
$array); ?>).
cheers,
db
