HTML + PHP

[Anon]

I don´t know how to use forms with HTML + PHP.
I have the follow problem:
....
....
....
//code lines
....
....

echo "<tr>";
echo "<td align=left><font>Select the name </font></td>";
echo "<td><select name='nombreCafe'>";

while (ora_fetch($cursor)){
$i=0;
$valor=ora_getcolumn($cursor,$i);
echo "<option value='$valor' >$valor</option>";
}

echo "</select> ";
echo "</td>";

echo "</tr>";

echo $nombreCafe,"<br>";
...
...
...
I like to know what is the nombreCafe's value, all run pretty good, but echo line doesn´t print anything. I try with:

echo nombreCafe, "<br>";
echo("¡$nombreCafe!<BR>");

and I don´t see the value of nombreCafe's.

How can I get the value of nombreCafe?

Thanks for your answers.
Bye.

I have little idea what you are attempting to do, but if its just echoing the output of a form, why not use this...

<?php
echo "field_1";
echo "field_2";

?>

<FORM ACTION="<?php echo($PHP_SELF); ?>" METHOD=POST>
<table border="0" cellspacing="0" cellborder="0">
<TR><TD bgcolor=fd4d1f9">Field 1</TD><TD><INPUT TYPE="text" NAME="field_1" SIZE="10" MAXLENGTH="30"></TD>
<TD bgcolor="ff05a47">Field 2</TD><TD><INPUT TYPE="text" NAME="field_2" SIZE="10" MAXLENGTH="20"></TD>
</table>
<br>
<INPUT TYPE=SUBMIT NAME="submit" VALUE="SUBMIT">
</FORM>

When put into a file called say formtest.php
You'll have two boxes, say you put Hello into the first, and Dave into the second then click submit, the page will refresh with Hello Dave on it. (probably, I'm tried)

<?php
echo "field_1";
echo "field_2";

?>

should be

<?php
echo $field_1;
echo $field_2;

?>

Read up on some manuals and tutorials Claudia. You need to understand basic HTML first, then move on to some examples of PHP where stuff is explained to you so that you can follow it.

Jumping in head first will slow you down in the end...
