Re: HTML/PHP's static state problem.

As a matter of fact you can create dynamic comboboxes, but not with soley PHP. Because PHP is server-side, it has no idea what the user has selected on a form, etc. JavaScript, on the other hand, is client-side, so it keeps track of what the user is doing. I've done this very thing for a leasing company. I used PHP and MySQL to create a series of arrays in Javascript. When the user clicked on a value in the first combobox I used onClick to call a function which loaded information into the second box. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Alexander Deruwe" <a@deruwe.be> To: <php-general@lists.php.net> Sent: Monday, July 09, 2001 12:17 PM Subject: [PHP] HTML/PHP's static state problem. > Hey all, > > I've run into a little problem: > Take, for example, combobox A and combobox B.
