[PHP-DEV] Refreshing a form starting from a combo box change

2001-01-18 Thread Luiz Augusto G Flores (Amix)

I'm new in this list (subscribed yesterday, at night) and already new in PHP
Programming.
I guess sombebody has already answered this question:
How can I procced to update a form from a combo box change, bringing the
rest of values necessary to fill the form ?

An example:
A form with 

Name: - textbox
Adress: - textbox
Company: - combo box
Contact: - textbox

When you choose a Company (this combo is filled from an Oracle database
table), the Contact textbox is automatically filled with its contact in the
same table). 

Thanks for any help

What you're asking to do is generally a client side thing (getting the
browser to fill in a form is normally done with javascript). You *could*, I
guess, get the combo box to submit the form, which PHP then prints out
prepopulated, but its rather a waste of resources. Unless, of course, you
need to populate it with a database query, in which case get the combo box
to submit (using JS), perform your query, and use a lot of print statements
to send the prefilled form back.

Check a javascript site for info on how to do it with JS. If you need more
help, you should take this to the PHP-General list. This list (PHP-DEV) is
for actual development of PHP, not the use of it.
