Is it possible to create a drop-down list where the
initial value displayed depends on a variable. Say I
have a table called "categories" with columns "id" and
"descr". Currently I populate the list with a query:
$query = "SELECT descr from categories";
How could I make the default value of the list be
conditional on the categories id? So if the variable
categories id is "3", the initial value shown in that
drop down menu will be the description of the category
with id 3.
Does this make sense?
thanks,
J
