Pulling menu items from a database table in an Insert form

Question

Hope someone can help with this...
Basically my table structure is for Products which are sub divided into Categories.
So I have a table Categories which is literally just category_ID and category.
And table Products, with product_ID, category_ID, product etc.
I have an insert form to add new categories.
And an insert form to add new products.
So to attach a product to the correct category, I'm trying to use a drop down box in my Add Product form that pulls the existing categories from the categories table...
Which at least looks OK here:
http://www.gbp.uk.com/admin/addProduct.php
However, this is just entering a 0 into the category_ID field of my Products table.
if anyone can help out with what is going wrong here, that would be much appreciated.
The code for the category_ID field currently looks like this (I haven't touched it since ADDT created it):
<select name="category_ID" id="category_ID">
                      <?php
do {
?>
                      <option value="<?php echo $row_rsCategories['category']?>"<?php if (!(strcmp($row_rsCategories['category'], $row_rsproducts['category_ID']))) {echo "SELECTED";} ?>><?php echo $row_rsCategories['category']?></option>
                      <?php
} while ($row_rsCategories = mysql_fetch_assoc($rsCategories));
  $rows = mysql_num_rows($rsCategories);
  if($rows > 0) {
      mysql_data_seek($rsCategories, 0);
  $row_rsCategories = mysql_fetch_assoc($rsCategories);
?>
                    </select>
                      <?php echo $tNGs->displayFieldError("products", "category_ID"); ?>
Many thanks!

Well done - Are you using ADDT's Dynamic lists and Forms together with the Master-Detail Wizards ?
In the creation of the Dynamic Form you need to set the Category to display as a menu (looks like you have done that) and the menu properties need to be retrieved rom the Categories table.
