I have a form I want to keep sticky, but I can't figure out how. I got all the <INPUT>'s to be sticky.... The select script <?php echo '<strong>State</strong><br>'; echo '<select name="State">'; foreach ($state_list as $key => $value) { echo "<option value=\"$key\"> $value</option>\n"; } echo '</select>'; echo '<br>'; ?>
If I'm reading this correctly you mean if the value has been selected before select it again? If so way I did it was by checking the database value eg echo "<option value=\"$key\" if ($row[id] == $key) {
      print "SELECTED"; }
echo "> $value </option>\n"; Peter Jackson
