 Subject: [PHP-DB] MySQL Query on the Fly
 
 Good Morning,
 
 
 
 I've been searching and toying with this solution for some time but
 can't find that right answer.  Looking for solutions/suggestions to the
 following:
 
 
 
 I created a program that will allow people to track sales and depending
 on what they've sold, they will either get a set bonus, or a bonus based
 on a percentage.  I have no problem creating a drop down box for them to
 select from, and I could probably create a select button that would do
 the action, but I'd rather have it in one step.  So what I'm trying to
 do is somehow when they select from the drop down (via a JavaScript
 onchange or something) I'd like it to pull data from the MySQL database.
 I'd like it to pull the amount and then each or per based on the ID of
 what they've selected from the drop down.  If it was always based on
 each sale or based on a percentage, that would be easy as I could code
 that into the drop box, but I'd like to keep it based on the ID so that
 it can pull out of the database the name, and then when changed pull the
 info.  Any ideas?  Thanks in advance for the help.  If you have any
 questions or it seems like I left something out, please let me know.
 
 
 
 
 
 Thank you for your time,
