Please help - simple problem

Post by strugglestreet »

Question needing answer please.

Posted earlier today but might not have been too clear.

Problem:

Drop down box.

User selects and hits 'submit'.

How to retrieve and display the row from that table relevent to that selection using mysql and php?

I can find loads of info about retrieving and displaying database information and can get plenty of instances to work: but not as a result of a selection made with a drop down box.

Thanks in anticipation...!

Is this not the subject of your other thread?

Yes it is similar to my previous topic...

But I wondered after posting it and seeing other responses to other posts whether I'd made my first post clear enough.

In hindsight I probably should have added it as a 'reply' to the first post rather than create a new topic, shouldn't I?

Oh, and I normally can't stand topics posted with 'vague' titles like 'Please Help' but looking through the forum I have seen examples like 'Can Anyone Help' that seem to receive a reasonable number of responses so thought I'd try that.

Just after a little help from what I perceive to be a brilliant forum for all skill levels that's all.
