I have it. I actually got it!
I had the if statement in the wrong place.
Here is what I did:
if($quantity <1)
{
echo "Sorry I can't seem to locate this item";
}
else
{
//check if form has been submitted
if($submit)
{
}
else
{
//if the form has not been submitted run the following
echo "<FORM ACTION='sortitems.php'METHOD='post'>";
echo "<SELECT NAME='sort' SIZE='1' >";
echo "$thisoption";
echo "<OPTION VALUE='shop'>Put in my shop</OPTION>";
echo "<OPTION VALUE='locker'>Put into my Footlocker</OPTION>";
echo "<OPTION VALUE='discard'>Discard this item</OPTION>";
echo "<OPTION VALUE='donate'>Donate this item</OPTION>";
echo "</SELECT>";
echo "<INPUT TYPE='submit' VALUE='Submit' NAME='submit'>";
echo "</FORM>";
}
}
}
and it worked perfectly!
Thank you ALL for your time and help!
Jennifer
