i have a form that adds names and emails to a database.
i got it where it can display all the information from that table.

what i want to do is have a way for a user to choose from a option box the name they want to see and when they chose, it brings up just thats person name information that they choosing.

how do i get it where the option they choose from the option/list box the where section of the query statement. $query"Select * from members where members.??=members.??

if have the reference point primary key as id

what do i need to set the <option value=""> to so it puts the right variable into the select statement?


what im trying to do is like a all members page for a forum and like when you select or click on a link, it brings up thats person personal information

You'll need to create your list box from the values in your members table. You'll have to create a query that will contain the names and IDs, then populate your list box with that.

You just use a FOR loop to go though your array of names and create your list box from there.

I hope this helps.

i already got it running threw a loop to display the name for the visible choice and i got the value set to the id so when they select like "me" and the id is 1 and they send it it goes to another page or the same page i know you can do, that and uses that id value to select that row of info and i run it threw another loop to bring the info out to a waiting table to display the info.

isnt pretty much force feeding the get url the way you want it and from that url it takes the values and runs the search on it?
