[RESOLVED] Multiple Values

[obrienkev]

Hi all,

I need to pass multiple values in a select menu.

How do I do this?
How do I also pass SurName and FirstName?

Thanks.

echo '<select name="ffnumber" id="ffnumber"><option value="0">Select Name</option>';
while($row = mysql_fetch_array($result))
{
echo '<option value= "'.$row['FFNumber'].'">'.$row['SurName'].' '.$row['FirstName'].'</option>';
}

Don't you already have them? I see you putting them into the form.

This works...thanks.

while($row = mysql_fetch_array($result))
{
    $value = $row['id'].'+'.$row['SurName'].'+'.$row['FirstName'];
    echo '<option value= "'.$value.'">'.$row['SurName'].' '.$row['FirstName'].'</option>';
}

Then split var...

$ffnumber = $_POST['ffnumber'];
//echo '<h2>FFNumber: '.$ffnumber.'</h2>';

// Split FFnumber vars
list($ffnumber, $surname, $firstname) = split('[/.-]', $ffnumber);
//$staff = $ffnumber.'-'.$surname.'-'.$firstname;
