Hi Michael, Yes I do! Take a look at the code snippet below: echo "<select name=something>"; $level2 = $db->execute("select typename from types"); do { $value=$level2->fields[0]; echo "<option value=$value>$value</option>"; $level2->nextRow(); } while (!$level2->EOF); $level2->close(); echo "</select>"; Just change the query in the 2nd line of the code to the desired query. You'll see the result ;-) Best of luck, Ahmad Anvari da Code Guru ----- Original Message ----- From: RealGM To: php-general@lists.php.net Sent: Saturday, March 10, 2001 4:21 PM Subject: [PHP] Combo Box containing field Hi, Does anyone know how I can create a combo box in my php file that reads the options in from a database field? I can create combo boxes fine containing values that I enter, but I want it to read the values from the database into the drop down box for the user to select. Thanks, Michael.
