Re: How To Create dropdown menu in Mysql

[John C. Clair]

Drop down lists (select elements) are fairly common in HTML forums.They allow the user to select from a list rather than typing in the data making it easier and reducing typing errors.
Purpose:The user can now choose a CD from the list in the drop down.
Completing the process:At the moment the user chooses a cdtitle which is good for the user but not the data base.The data base needs to know the cdreference as that is the primary key.This is not a problem as HTML.
The value attribute of the form field holds the CD reference for each entry in the drop down.
