Re: [PHP-DB] calling a column into a popup
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. beckie > From: Steve Brett <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Date: Mon, 23 Apr 2001 16:02:02 +0100 > To: Beckie Pack <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: RE: [PHP-DB] calling a column into a popup > > becky the code below is spot on (nearly) > > stick it on a form that calls itself change the value= and when you refresh the form $company will contain the comany name. > > you can also use selected in the folowing manner > > $regs = pg_Exec($conn, "select region_id, region_name from region > where ".$depdisplay." is not null order by ".$depdisplay."

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

RE: [PHP-DB] calling a column into a popup
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''; > -Original Message- > From: Beckie Pack [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Sent: 23 April 2001 15:29 > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: Re: [PHP-DB] calling a column into a popup > > > That's almost it.

Re: [PHP-DB] calling a column into a popup
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 > From: "Johannes Janson" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Date: Sun, 22 Apr 2001 21:49:36 +0200 > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: Re: [PHP-DB] calling a column into a popup > > Hi, > > let me get this right.

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

[PHP-DB] calling a column into a popup
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 -- PHP Database Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To contact the list administrators, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
