Re: [PHP-DB] calling a column into a popup

2001-04-23 Thread Beckie Pack

yup, now i realize it is a form calling itself with a php doc. i feel like a
dufus(sp?). i didn't recognize the "echo" as opposed to print so I didn't
see the html coming. learning php, mysql, and database design all together.
it's kinda fun, given time for a project you know.

thanks to both of you.

So a certain company is previously selected? And then you want to
populate the form with the info of the company?

to do this link the menu with a onChange action to a display page.

But I'm not sure if I get the layout. Could you describe it again?

Cheers
Johannes

becky the code below is spot on (nearly)

stick it on a form that calls itself change the ';
echo 'Choose a Region';

for ($s=0; $s<$numregs; $s++)
{
$reglist = pg_fetch_array($regs,$s);
echo''.$reglist["region_name"].'';
}

echo'';

2001-04-23 Thread Beckie Pack

That's almost it. I want to populate the menu automatically from the
database without having to manually modify the HTML. I believe the below
will pull the data but it doesn't modify the menu in HTML. I tried a few
things like using the variable name as the same as the co_name but the menu
always comes up blank unless I put an option name in the list. it doesn't
pass the variable for $co_name in the HTML.

thanks,
boo

Re: [PHP-DB] calling a column into a popup

2001-04-22 Thread Johannes Janson

Hi,

let me get this right. What I understood is the following:

1. Your admin page where you enter the information of a company
2. A Page with a drop-down list where all the company names are listed.
   (These names should then be linked to an information page with more
info?)
3. A page where new companies can be added.

well the drop-down list you can do with a simple while and a select(html)
like
this:
$result = mysql_query("SELECT companyName FROM companyTable ORDER BY
companyName");
echo "";
while (list($c_name) = mysql_fetch_array($result)) {
echo "$c_name";
}

If this is what you want (what I'm not sure about) I'm glad I understood
you. If not supply more detailed information.

Cheers
Johannes

[PHP-DB] calling a column into a popup

2001-04-20 Thread Beckie Pack

I'm creating a database where I'd like to relate a company name field to all
the field in the database (mysql).  what i'm trying to do is have a field
pop up with all the current company names in a pop up list on a browser. so,
for example, using a form i can enter all the data for a company including
name, address, etc. what i'm trying to do is have a popup for the company so
if the information is already entered it is there for selection or the
person can enter a new company if it's not there.

any ideas?

thanks,
beckie
