Hi,
Just wondering if you could help me out with a problem I can't seem to
solve. I have a MYSQL/PHP photo gallery website which I'm currently
developing.
In order to add records I've created a page with an HTML form which
inserts records into the MYSQL database. I've had no problems
inserting data from text <INPUT> type fields. However, when I come to
add data from a <SELECT> drop down box, it isn't working. For some
reason - & regardless of the option picked when you submit the form -
the data entered is always the last value in the list.
Has anyone any ideas? Grateful for any tips/solutions. The relevent
code is below:
<?PHP
$query1 = "SELECT DISTINCT picplace FROM pictureplace ORDER BY picplace";
$result1 = mysql_query($query1)
or die ("Couldn't execute query1.");
?>
<form action='<?$PHP_SELF?>' method='post'>
<select name='picplace'>
<?
while ($row = mysql_fetch_array($result1))
{
extract($row);
echo "<option value='$picplace'>$picplace \n";
}
echo "</select> \n";
?>
<br />
<input type='submit' value='>' />
</form>
Thanks,
Chris
