This is actually a small excerpt from a program I've written in the
past... hope it helps...
function show_downtime_form() {
global $conf_file;
global $filter;
$data=file($conf_file);
foreach ( $data as $line ) {
$bang=explode(':', $line);
$idents[]=$bang[0];
}
$idents=array_unique($idents);
echo '<div align="center"><hr width="300">';
echo '<form name="inputform" action="reports.php"
method="post">';
echo 'Match Idents To:<br>';
echo '<input type="text" name="filter" value="'.$filter.'">';
echo '<br> - OR Select - <br>';
echo '<select name="temp" onchange="doEcho()">';
echo '<option selected>--From Current Idents--';
foreach($idents as $ident) {
echo '<option value="'.$ident.'">'.$ident;
}
echo '</select>';
echo '<br>';
echo '<input type="submit" value="search">';
echo '</form>';
echo '</div>';
}
