Changing an option from a drop down menu
Posted: Wed Apr 22, 2009 5:13 pm
hi, this question might just be the stupidest ever, but I want to be careful and not mess anything up. this is the code for a drop down menu I have in an application page.
<select name="ProgrammeName" id="ProgrammeName">
<option value="" selected="selected" disabled="disabled">Select Programme</option>
<option value="2-Week" <?php if (!(strcmp("2-Week", KT_escapeAttribute($row_rstblapplication['ProgrammeName'])))) {echo "SELECTED";} ?>>2-Week</option>
<option value="4-Week" <?php if (!(strcmp("4-Week", KT_escapeAttribute($row_rstblapplication['ProgrammeName'])))) {echo "SELECTED";} ?>>4-Week</option>
<option value="8-Week" <?php if (!(strcmp("8-Week", KT_escapeAttribute($row_rstblapplication['ProgrammeName'])))) {echo "SELECTED";} ?>>8-Week</option>
</select>
to change from a 2 week to a 3 week option, I just substitute the 3 for a 2, right? I think it is just a string, I'm just not sure what >2-Week</option> at the end of the line is, not calling a variable, right?
