php and javascript

I Have a combo box which is supposed to trigger an event using onchange, for some reason, its not working (the function it is) and am tired of trying to figure it out on my own, can someone take a look at the function, and the onchange event which is suposed to call it?
Thanks
(my javascript function in the <HEAD>)
<SCRIPT TYPE="TEXT/JAVASCRIPT">
function findNum() {
document.date.c_num.value = <?php echo $result1['C_NUMBER']; ?>
}
</SCRIPT>

(the combo box, whos calls the function, onchange)
<SELECT NAME="ADATE" SIZE="1" onchange="findNum()">
😕

When the page loads, view the source. Find that section in your header - what does it say? Paste everything in between the script tags in here for us to see. Or, better yet, give us a link.

the problem is with the second form.

Did you look at the source?

<SCRIPT TYPE="TEXT/JAVASCRIPT">
function findNum() {
document.date.c_num.value = }
</SCRIPT>

In other words, $result1['C_NUMBER'] is blank.

OK
What i'm trying to do is to run a select statement again once that function is run?
Do you know how to do this?
Thanks

What do you mean? Post some code.

Well, I may have painted myself into a corner, but the combo box is a database lokup and is run by the sql query (select A_DATE, C_NUMBER from ACTIVITY order by A_DATE😉 What you see in the combo box is A_DATE. I'm trying to make the form, once a selection is made, write the Primary Key of that row (C_NUMBER) into that text box (which I will make hidden once it works). I submit the form using the get method so both variables should show up in the URL once the form is submited. Thanks for taking the time to help me out!
