Auto refresh + Database Query

[obrienkev]

Hi all,

I have a select menu created.

When the user makes a selection I want to perform a Database Query based on the users selection.

How do I do this? That is how do I get the page to make the database call once select menu used?

Thanks.

hi,

You can use Ajax. here explanation from wiki en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ajax_(programming)

I have been looking at using ajax but decided to concentrate on php. Any ideas how the above is done?

[qolbu]

you can try with xajax , sajax, etc.

U need to use javascript onchange event, and let the script do what u want him to do...
If u want only to change part of your page u should use ajax (xmlhttprequest) or just refresh the entire page ...
