Hi-- I hope all of you are having a great long weekend! Let's say I have four (4) tables: - "campus" that holds all my campuses' names (only 3), - "building_campus1" that holds all buildings for 'campus1', - "building_campus2" that holds all buildings for 'campus2', - "building_campus3" that holds all buildings for 'campus3'. If the user selects "campus 1" from a drop-menu, how can I select "buildings for campus 1" on a second drop-down menu? In other words, how do I select the corresponding "building's table" when any "campus" is selected? Thanks! P.S. I have tried the 'onChange' command, but I guess I got the syntax wrong: ================================================================= // $campus: <?php echo("<SELECT onChange='building.value = building.this.value' NAME='campus'>"); $cmlist = @pg_exec($db, "SELECT * FROM \"Campus\"") or die(include("../sqlerror.inc")); $i = 0; $x = pg_numrows($cmlist); while ($i < $x):
        $clist = pg_fetch_array($cmlist,$i);
        echo "<OPTION VALUE='".$clist["Campus"]."'>".$clist["Campus"]."</OPTION>";
        $i++;
endwhile; echo("</SELECT>"); ?> $building: <?php echo("<SELECT NAME='building'>"); $cmlist = @pg_exec($db, "SELECT * FROM building_$campus") or die(include("../sqlerror.inc")); $i = 0; $x = pg_numrows($cmlist); while ($i < $x):
        $clist = pg_fetch_array($cmlist,$i);
        echo "<OPTION VALUE='".$clist["Building"]."'>".$clist["Building"]."</OPTION>";
        $i++;
endwhile; echo("</SELECT>"); ?> ================================================================= Julio Cuz, Jr. Riverside Community College jcuz@rccd.cc.ca.us
