Drop Down Box

[azurian]

Hi,

I'm trying to use PHP to process a feedback form, and I want to use a drop down selection box:

<SELECT name="name">
<OPTION>1st Option</OPTION>
<OPTION>2nd Option and so on</OPTION>
</SELECT>

My problem is that my PHP page cannot read from the dropdown box correctly. The rest of the form is OK.

I'm sure it's a simple problem - too simple even for my 4 text books to cover!!

you have to add value="blah" to the option:

<option value="value_1">1st Option</option>

Thanks.

Yes I did forget that, but I also dicovered that I was using = to compare variables, instead of ==. So, my code was changing the users choice from the drop down box.

I've lost count of how many times I've done that! :rolleyes:
