don't know if this will help, but you could do something like this
foreach ($hashes as $name => $variable) {
switch ($name)
{
case 'board':
$nameText = "PCB Type";
break;
case 'size':
$nameText = "PCB Size";
break;
case 'numb':
$nameText = "Amount Required";
break;
case 'days':
$nameText = "Delivery Time";
break;
}
print "<TR><TD>$nameText: </TD><TD>\n<select name=\"$name\"
onChange=\"this.form.submit();\">\n";
foreach ($variable as $key => $value) {
if ($_SERVER['REQUEST_METHOD'] == 'POST') {
if ($value == $_POST[$name]) {
print "<option
value=\"$_POST[$name]\">$key</option>\n";
}
}
} // end inner for each
foreach ($variable as $key => $value) {
if ($value != $_POST[$name]) {
print "<option value=\"$value\">$key</option>\n";
}
} // end inner for each
print "</select>\n</TD></TR>\n";
} // end for each outer
this uses these arrays:
// size options hash
$optionSize = array(
'0.1 Squ.Dcm' => 0.1,
'0.25 Squ.Dcm' => 0.25,
'0.5 Squ.Dcm' => 0.5,
'0.75 Squ.Dcm' => 0.75,
'1 Squ.Dcm' => 1,
'2 Squ.Dcm' => 2,
'3 Squ.Dcm' => 3,
'4 Squ.Dcm' => 4,
'6 Squ.Dcm' => 6,
'8 Squ.Dcm' => 8,
'10 Squ.Dcm' => 10
);
// numb options hash
$optionNumb = array(
'1 circuit' => 1,
'2 circuits' => 2,
'3 circuits' => 3,
'4 circuits' => 4,
'5 circuits' => 5,
'10 circuits' => 10,
'20 circuits' => 20,
'30 circuits' => 30,
'40 circuits' => 40,
'50 circuits' => 50
);
// days options hash
$optionDays = array(
'10 scheduled' => 10,
'5 scheduled' => 6,
'5 working days' => 5,
'4 working days' => 4,
'3 working days' => 3,
'2 working days' => 2,
);
// board options hash
$optionBoard = array(
'0.8 single' => 1,
'0.8 double' => 2,
'0.8 PTH' => 3,
'1.6 single' => 4,
'1.6 double' => 5,
'1.6 PTH' => 6,
'3.2 single' => 7,
'3.2 double' => 8,
'3.2 PTH' => 9,
// '1.6 4-layer' => 10,
// '1.6 6-layer' => 11,
);
$optionDaysSmall = array('10 scheduled' => 10);
// hashes hash
$hashes = array(
'board' => $optionBoard,
'size' => $optionSize,
'numb' => $optionNumb,
'days' => $optionDays,
);
but it shouldn't be to hard to dynamically make the arrays,
hope this helps
