I fixed that problem. Now trying to get the user selection after all menu has been shown to the user and when the selections are done. Could you please let me know how to get all those information at the end. The way I did it just work for the last menu selection. I suppose I have to use some sort of array but don't know exactly how to do that. I will appriciate your suggestion. Thank you.
Take a look of my complete code:
<html>
<title>
Menu Test
</title>
<body>
<script type="text/javascript">
<!--
function updateTextBox(selectObj, textBoxObj)
{
var index = selectObj.selectedIndex;
var selection = selectObj.options[index].text;
textBoxObj.value += selection + "\n";
}
// -->
</script>
<?php
extract( $_GET );
if( !isset($submit))// do this if no GET vars
{
print "<form method=\"GET\">";
print "<p>Enter in the number of times below:</p>";
print "<input type=\"text\" name=\"number\" size=\"30\">";
$menu_counter = 0;
print "<input type='hidden' name='menu_counter' value=$menu_counter>";
print "<input name=\"submit\" type=\"submit\" value=\"send\">";
print "<input name=\"reset\" type=\"reset\" value=\"reset\">";
print "</form>" ;
}
else
{
/*if( $submit='submit' )
{
//you insert all of the data from the form element into the DB here
//make sure to use $HTTP_GET_VARS[""]; for you variables
print "Hello World";
} */
//$menu_counter = 0;
//print "<form name = \"myform\" action=\"CheckInsertedItems.php\" method=\"POST\">";
if( $number>0 )
{
$months = array("January","February","March","April","May","June","July", "August","September","October","November","December");
$number = $HTTP_GET_VARS["number"]-1;
$menu_counter =$HTTP_GET_VARS["menu_counter"]+1;
print "<form method=\"GET\">";
print "Select components for term $menu_counter<br>";
//print "<select name=\"something\" value=\"$main_count\" multiple";
//for ($i=0; $i<=count($months); $i++)
?>
<select size="5" name="user_choice" onclick="updateTextBox(this, currentSelections)">
<?php
foreach ($months as $Existing_Item)
{
//print "\t<option value=\"$i\">".$months[$i-1]."\n";
print "<option value=\"$Existing_Item \">$Existing_Item</option>";
}
print "</select>";
print "<br>";
?>
<select size="5" name="user_choice" onclick="updateTextBox(this, currentSelections)">
<?php
foreach ($months as $Existing_Item)
{

print "<option value=\"$Existing_Item \">$Existing_Item</option>";
}
print "</select>";
print "<br>";

print "<input name=\"submit\" type=\"submit\" value=\"submit\">";
print "<input name=\"reset\" type=\"reset\" value=\"reset\">";
print "</form>";
}
//print "</form>";
else
{
// do whatever happens after the number of forms has been filled
print "<br>You choice are: <br>";
$InputDomain = $currentSelections;
$length = strlen($InputDomain);
$i = 0;
$counter = 1;
while($i < $length)
{
if ($InputDomain[$i] == "\n")
{
$ArrayOfDomain[] = trim($SelectedInputDomain);
$OrderNo[] = $counter;
$val1 = trim($SelectedInputDomain);
$val2 = $counter;
?>
<!--
<input type="hidden" name ="InputDomain[]" VALUE = "<?php echo $val1;?>">
<input type="hidden" name ="OrderNo[]" VALUE = "<?php echo $val2;?>">
-->
<?php
print "$val1 & $val2 <br>";
$counter++;
$SelectedInputDomain = NULL;
$i++;
}
else
{
$SelectedInputDomain = "$SelectedInputDomain" . "$InputDomain[$i]";
$i++;
}
