Select Box

[stacybk]

I have a select box that I created going through my database in PHP. I display that box on my website. When someone makes a choice, I don't want anything to happen, but when the data from the whole page is posted, I want to know the what the user chose.
Any ideas?

I don't think I understand your question, because the only answer I can come up with is "Output a standard HTML form".

so would the data be stored in the name of the select box?

In such case, this is not a PHP question but an HTML question.

I strongly recommend that you read up on HTML. The SELECT tag here:

Thanks. I had read the stuff in the HTML book, but was confused about the return to php. I got it now.
