 Hi Dean,

  Does anyone know how to give a select pulldown box a default value
  from a PHP variable?

 ?
 function generate_option_list ($key_value,$set) {
 // This function will return option list and set the selected attribute
 // $key_value : the associative array which contain the key and the value
for each option
 // $set : the value to be selected by deafult
 //
 // Usage: for example we want to have a dropdown list of month, and set
February as selected
 //
 //   $key_value=array(01=January,02=February,...);
 //   $option_list=generate_option_list($key_value,02);
 //   //$option_list now contain text option value='01'January/option
 //   //  option value='02'
selectedFebruary/option
 //
 // NOTE: This will only create the OPTION tag, without the SELECT tag
 //

   while ( list($key,$value) = each($key_value) ) {
 if ($key==$set) {$var.=option value='$key'
selected$value/option;}
 else {$var.=option value='$key'$value/option;}
   }
   return $var;
 }

 ?

[PHP] Piping data into a select box

2002-01-12 Thread Dean Householder 

Does anyone know how to give a select pulldown box a default value from a PHP variable?

I've been able to figure out how to pipe data into every type in input  type of form 
element except for a select  element.  Any solutions would be helpful!

 Dean, give this a try.

  form action=?php print $php_self? method=post
  ?php
  select type=text name=table STYLE=width:180px option ;
  for ($i=0;$i=$num;$i++)
   {
   print option.mysql_tablename($tables,$i);   // or.  i.e.
 $some_array[$i]
   }
  print /select;

  echo table .$table;

 hugh
