Ok, how about a code snipet since I seem to be blind this morning. The
select box code:
<select multiple="yes" name="groups" id="av">
<?
$sql = "select groupID,groupName from groups order by groupName";
$result = mssql_query($sql,$connection);
while($row = mssql_fetch_array($result)){
$groupID = $row["groupID"];
$groupName = $row["groupName"];
echo "<option value=\"$groupID\">$groupName</option>";
}
?>
</select>
On the next page I tried the code Erik recommended doing this:
foreach ($groups as $group_list){
echo $group_list;
}
Any eye openers? Thanks,
-Scott
