Hi,

have some difficulty with my 'select'

In my select/menu, I display all the options come from a table (table_db_email) 
in my database

In this table (tb_code_prmtn11_email) I have two field : 
fld_email_id
 fld_name_email

It works here is a code


------------code-------------------->
<select name="email_adress_menu" id="email_adress_menu"  class="valid"  
onchange="submit()">
<?php
  echo "<option selected=\"selected\" value=''>Choose your name</option>"; 
  $req_email_adress_menu =   "SELECT DISTINCT id_email, fld_name_email, 
fld_adresse_email FROM $table_db_email ORDER BY fld_name_email ";
  $rep_email_adress_menu =  mysql_query($req_email_adress_menu, $cnx) or die( 
mysql_error() ) ;

  while($show_email_adress_menu = mysql_fetch_assoc($rep_email_adress_menu)) {
    echo '<option value="'.$show_email_adress_menu['id_email'].'"';
    //if($primes==$show_email_adress_menu['fld_name_email']){echo " selected";} 
//display to select an option!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
    echo '>'.$show_email_adress_menu['fld_name_email'].'  - 
'.$show_email_adress_menu['fld_adresse_email'].'</option>';
  }
?>
</select>
<-----end----code--------------------
I have some other information coming from another table : tb_code_prmtn11 
(containing information about people)

I have a few fields :

    id_resultat
    fld_name
    fld_email_id; ( FOREIGN KEY (fld_email_id) REFERENCES tb_code_prmtn11_email 
(id_email) ON DELETE NO ACTION ON UPDATE CASCADE;)

I want to put this menu on another Web page and this select must display all of 
the options as below( with) BY SELECTING THE OPTION THAT MATCHES THE 
INFORMATION FOUND IN THE SECOND TABLE : tb_code_prmtn11

How can I do this ?

------------code-------------------->
SELECT td.id_resultat,td.fld_email_id,email.fld_name_email 
  FROM $table_db td
  JOIN $table_db_email email ON td.fld_email_id = email.id_email 
 WHERE td.id_resultat = $id 
<-----end----code--------------------
This code works also but I don't know how I can include this second query in my 
menu... 

Do you have an idea for me ?

I don't even understand what the first two code blocks are saying.  Looks 
like html, but I have never seen it like that.  I also don't see the two 
fields you specifically mention to start in your first select statement - 
some other garbled names are there instead.  Are you sure you've copied this 
correctly?

#### radio select validation ####

What I am doing wrong?

I want to make sure a radio button is selected, but my current code
allows insertion even when radio button isn't selected.

You can also avoid the problem with an empty return if no radio button is checked by making sure one is checked when your form loads, by using the 'checked' attribute on one of the items. If you want them to have a "not tested" option, you can include that as one of your buttons and add it to the array above as well. (That might be a good place to use the zero value.)

My code is:

                                //Generating radio buttons for store type with 
array
                                echo 'Store type:<br /><br />';
                                        $choices = array('corporate' => 
'Cricket owned | ',
                                                                         'premier' 
=> 'Premier dealer');

                                                                                
$firstchecked=FALSE;
                                                                         foreach 
($choices as $key => $choice) {
                                                                                
        if (!$firstchecked) {
echo "<input type='radio' name='store_type' value='$key' checked /> $choice".PHP_EOL;
                                                                                
                $firstchecked = TRUE;
                                                                                
        } else {
                                                                                 echo 
"<input type='radio' name='store_type' value='$key'/>
$choice \n";
                                                                                
        }
                                                                        }
                                //Validate the radio button submission
                                                                        if 
(!array_key_exists($_POST['store_type'], $choices)) {
                                                                            echo 
"You must select a valid choice.";
                                                                        }

That's rather brute-force; perhaps some maven can come up with a better scheme.

Call me backwards, but I prefer to keep my statements simple. I would first
obtain the POST value before trying to pull up an array element.

$stype=$_POST[''store_type'];
if (!isset($stype))
   (handle missing radio button)
else
   $st_name=$choices[$stype];

for me (and the next guy who has to look at the code) this is simpler to
follow, IMHO.

Yeah, probably true, also probably saves a bit on dereferencing, dunno how PHP interprets things.
