viji123 Posted January 24, 2011 Share Posted January 24, 2011 Hi, I am developing a web application using PHP and MySQL. I am filling my combobox with the value fetched from the MySQL database. I want to retain the selected value of the combo box in postback. I am able to do it with the statiic values. But in this case I am binding the combbox dynamically with the values from the database. Can anybody please help me? Thanks, Regards, Viji Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks, Regards, Viji So if I'm understanding properly, you would do something like this: <form method="post" action="yourPage.php"> <select name="comboBox"> <?php while($row = mysql_fetch_array($myQuery)) { ?> <option <?php if($_REQUEST['comboBox'] == $row['field']) echo "selected" ?> ><?php echo $row['field']; ?></option> <?php } ?> </select> <input type="submit"> </form> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
