That's an, er, interesting script. But it's not going ever to do what I
think you expect it to.
You need to use while to loop through the rows returned by your SQL
query, and for each iteration in the while loop, print the values you
need. Also, if you use extract, you can directly access variables that
have the same names as the rows in your table, so you don't have to refer
to array elements.
Frinstance, if you are fetching fields named value and label for this
exercise, something like:
echo '';
while ($array = mysql_fetch_array($mysql_result)) {
extract($array);
echo '' . $label . '';
}
echo '';
Of course, you'll need to put some more info in your tag and add
submit buttons and so forth.
