I would like to populate a table from a list selection box. I would like the user to use the drop down box to make a selection which then returns the data to the same table on the same page - does that make sense ... cheers
 
yes, it make sense....but do you want to do this clientside or serverside? Clientside would use some JS and avoid the roundtrip to the server...

serverside would make thr roundtrip , update the db and the query and write everything back to the page

Any one have a techie job in Toronto, I need to work...being laid off sucks!
 
I would like the drop down to get info from one table in the Db, the selection from the dropdown would then fill the table on the same page THEN the clinet would submit it back to a different table in the Db.. Im in on the south coast of UK... good luck job hunting
