hi all
I am definately stuck now. i have managed to insert data into my table
using php and sql staements.
I have also managed to display that data on a single page.
the points where i am stuck
1) how do i display all the data contained in the table and not just the
one row?
2) i have my input form up and ready. a place for the header, test and a
drop down box containing the 40 pages i want to choose from to update.
how do i send the correct header text and the chioce in the drop down to
the correct table?
i think thats it for now lol. any help would be grately appreciated
kind regards
Mark...
