I want to make a dropdownlist that contains something from my database, all going well until I need to give each of the option unique id
<div class="div3" >
<select id="input2" class="drop" name="a" required>
<option value="" selected disabled>a</option>
<?php while ($row1 = mysqli_fetch_array($result)) :; ?>
<option class="option"><?php echo $row1[0]; ?></option>
<?php endwhile; ?>
</select>
</div>
Put an id unique value in option tag, and order you code for make an array with html tag, for example if $row1[0] = uniqueid and $row1[1] = name
<?php while ($row1 = mysqli_fetch_array($result)){?>
<option id="<?php echo $row1[0]; ?>" class="option"><?php echo $row1[1]; ?></option>
<?php }?>
Best Regards
I've got a problem. I'm trying to show restaurant's revenue graph of selected year and as a default. I want it to be showing this year's graph, in this case 2020. I used selected on this year's date, but the problem is that I have onchange. It only shows graph if I change something, reselect. Is there a good way to use first option as default?
<select id="yearPick" name="yearPick" onchange="load_new_content()">
<option value="year" disabled>year</option>
<option value="<?php echo date("Y"); ?>" selected><?php echo date("Y"); ?></option>
<?php for ($i = date("Y") - 1; $i >= 1980; $i--) { ?>
<option value="<?php echo $i ?>"><?php echo $i ?></option>
<?php } ?>
</select>

you have set Inside set value to option value and insert this option value in database .
<select name="id" required="" onchange="change_province()" class="province">
<option value="">SELECT CITY</option>
<?php
$res=mysqli_query($link,"select * from province");
while($row=mysqli_fetch_array($res)) {
?>
<option value="<?php echo $row["id"]; ?>"><?php echo $row["name"]; ?></option>
<?php } ?>
</select>
data insert
<?php
session_start();
$link=mysqli_connect("localhost","root","");
mysqli_select_db($link,"mknr2");
if(isset($_POST['submit'])){
$province = $_POST['province'];
$city = $_POST['city'];
$id= $_POST['id'];
$sql = "INSERT INTO users(PROVINCE, CITY, BARANGAY) VALUES ('$province','$city','$id')";
if($link->query($sql) === TRUE){
echo "Sent!";
}
else{
echo "Error:" . $sql . "<br>" . $link->error;
}
}
?>
Whats wrong with your code?
your select box will not have any option to select
as i can see in code
(a)you have not assigned any values to it.
<select id="city" name="city" class="city">
<option>Select</option>
</select>
<select id="barangay" name="barangay" class="barangay">
<option>Select</option>
</select>
(b)your javascript to call ajax.php which render select box with options will never executed as change_province,change_city functions will not be executed on any event
in this case if your form will be submitted without selecting province,on server side your post array will be like following
["submit"=>"value of submit","province"=>"","city"=>"","barangay"=>""]
now if you take look on your code to insert value your query for inserting data will be like this
INSERT INTO users(PROVINCE, CITY, BARANGAY) VALUES '','','')
causing to insert new record with id(in case id is auto-increment and these values are nullable)
What should you do?
(a)instead of making ajax call to fill select box you should render them at once inside form view
formview.php
<h2 style="font-size:20px;font-weight:bolder;font-family:arial;margin-left:2%;">Address</h2>
<!-- PROVINCE -->
<select id="provincedd" name="province" onchange="change_province()" class="province">
<option>Select</option>
<?php
$res=mysqli_query($link,"select * from province");
while($row=mysqli_fetch_array($res)) {
?>
<option value="<?php echo $row["id"]; ?>"><?php echo $row["name"];?></option>
<?php } ?>
</select>
<!-- PROVINCE -->
<?php
$res=mysqli_query($link,"select * from city");
echo "<select id='citydd' onchange='change_city()'>";
echo "<option>"; echo "Select"; echo "</option>";
while($row=mysqli_fetch_array($res))
{
echo "<option value='$row[id]' selected >"; echo $row["name"]; echo "</option>";
}
echo "</select>";
$res=mysqli_query($link,"select * from barangay");
echo "<select>";
echo "<option>"; echo "Select"; echo "</option>";
while($row=mysqli_fetch_array($res))
{
echo "<option value='$row[id]' selected>"; echo $row["name"]; echo "</option>";
}
echo "</select>";
?>
(b)inside your code to insert data ,you should put some server side(also front-end) validation before making insert to data table(you can search google for it),this will prevent any empty entry to be inserted.
hope this will help you.
I am trying to create a list populated with the columns from a table previously selected from another list of tables. But, I can't get the query to work.
I've appended a sample of my code that is not working. If i replace ".$search_query." with a table name it works. But, I want it to use the table selected by the user.
<!-- Table Select -->
<form name="myform" action="" method="post">
<select id="parentTable_{{$index}}" name="parentTable_{{$index}}" ng-model="parentTable_$index" type="selectable" onchange="submitform();">
<option style="display:none" value="users">select a table</option>
<?php
$count=1;
$sel_query="SHOW TABLES";
$result = mysqli_query($con,$sel_query);
while($row = mysqli_fetch_assoc($result)) { ?>
<option value="<?php echo $row["Tables_in_yamanagolddb"]; ?>"><?php echo $row["Tables_in_yamanagolddb"]; ?></option>
<?php $count++; } ?>
</select>
</form>
<!-- Index reference -->
<?php $search_query = mysqli_real_escape_string($con, $_POST['parentTable_{{$index}}']); ?>
<!-- Field Select -->
<select ng-model="parentField_$index" type="selectable">
<option style="display:none" value="">select a field</option>
<?php
$count=1;
$sel_query="select * from information_schema.columns where table_name = '".$search_query."' and table_schema = 'yamanagolddb'";
$result = mysqli_query($con,$sel_query);
while($row = mysqli_fetch_assoc($result)) { ?>
<option value="<?php echo $row["COLUMN_NAME"]; ?>"><?php echo $row["COLUMN_NAME"]; ?></option>
<?php $count++; } ?>
</select>
<script>
function submitform()
{
document.myform.submit();
}
</script>
I'm trying to post the values that I get from each dropdown menu, this is an n-level, however I'm going to use them maximum of 3. How can I post every value i get from each selection?
<?php
include('dbcon.php');
if($_REQUEST)
{
$id = $_REQUEST['parent_id'];
$query = "select * from ajax_categories where pid = ".$id;
$results = #mysql_query( $query);
$num_rows = #mysql_num_rows($results);
if($num_rows > 0)
{?>
<select name="sub_category" class="parent">
<option value="" selected="selected">-- Sub Category --</option>
<?php
while ($rows = mysql_fetch_assoc(#$results))
{?>
<option value="<?php echo $rows['id'];?>"><?php echo $rows['category'];?></option>
<?php
}?>
</select>
<?php
}
else{echo '<label style="padding:7px;float:left; font-size:12px;">No Record Found !</label>';}
}
?>
http://www.99points.info/2010/12/n-level-dynamic-loading-of-dropdowns-using-ajax-and-php/
change the select option of your like this
<select name="sub_category" class="parent">
<option value="" selected="selected">-- Sub Category --</option>
while ($rows = mysql_fetch_assoc(#$results))
{?>
echo '<option value="'.$row['id'].'">'.$rows['category'].'</option>';
<?php
}?>
</select>
<?php
}
else{echo '<label style="padding:7px;float:left; font-size:12px;">No Record Found !</label>';}
}
</select>
