Set Hyperlinks in Form List/Menu?
I'm new to adding form items to my sites and I'm wondering if
it's possible to set each item in a drop down menu to hyperlink to
another site. I'm sure it is, but I'm missing where you place the
link. I thought perhaps it went in the value field, but realize now
it doesn't. Or is there another method I should use to create a
link menu?
This is helpful - thank you for the reply. However, this is all code and looks pretty complex to me.
It's not hard. Just work through the tuts and learn to not be afraid of code view.
Sure wish there was a solution in design mode (with just a little code checking).

Hello, the kind, brilliant people on this forum have always been able to help me in the past, so I thought I'd give it a try today. Items in a form (list/menu) that I've created are opening in a blank window (pop-up) when clicked. I would like them to open in "self" mode so that pop up blockers on various computers don't become a challenge for site visitors. Can anyone please tell me how I could make that adjustment? I selected the entire form "red dotted line" around the list and changed the "target" in the properties menu to "self". Then I selected everything on the page and still not correct. I am inserting the code below. Any assistance to get me on the right track would be GREATLY appreciated!! BTW I also made the form a library item (just in case that fact is needed). Also if you need to see the actual link it is http://www.graphicmechanic.com/DEKALBCOUNTY/index.html. The "I WANT TO" list is the part I'm referring to.
CODE BELOW:
<form action="" method="post" name="form1" target="_self" class="style26" id="form1">
<a href="#" target="_self"><span class="style26">

</form>Looks like it still isn't working. When I removed those items the drop down menu stopped working as well. I went ahead and posted yours as the correct answer. I'm convinced it's my skill level. i'm gonna do some javascript searches to see where the js code should go, it's very confusing to me. Here is that code in case anything sticks out to you or anyone else.

I'm trying to insert a dynamicly generated form list/menu dropdown item.
Everything works but the list always shows me the last record from the database as the first item in the list (ASC or DESC).
I want to put a dummy label as the first item in the list like: Select from list
How can i do this, because even if i put a static value in the value list items, it still shows the last item from the recordset first instead of the static value.
Does anybody have an idea how i can create a dynamic pulldown list in my form with the first item listed to be a statich dummy tekst or label like "Select from list etc"
Thanks,I created a normal recordset with Dreamweaver getting tea
m_id and team_names out of the database. Then i list the teamnames in a form list/
menu (dropdown) to show all the available teams. Again it shows me the last record from the
recordset as the first list item and i want a standard "select this" text or something default.
The form code below is generated by dreamweaver itself. I already tried to also put one static value in the value list property but i get the same result. To me it looks like the while loop is overriding whatever you put as static text.
<form id="form1" name="form1" method="post" action="">
<label for="list_teams">Teams:</label>
<select name="list_teams" id="list_teams">
<?php
do {
?>
<option value="<?php echo $row_Teams['team_id']?>"<?php if (!(strcmp($row_Teams['team_id'], $row_Teams['team_id']))) {echo "selected=\"selected\"";} ?>><?php echo $row_Teams['team_name']?></option>
<?php
} while ($row_Teams = mysql_fetch_assoc($Teams));
$rows = mysql_num_rows($Teams);
if($rows > 0) {
mysql_data_seek($Teams, 0);
$row_Teams = mysql_fetch_assoc($Teams);
?>
</select>
</form> -
My form pages menu/list pull down items aren't legible in Firefox
I'm using the form item - menu/list - set to menu. It looks great in safari, but in firefox the list of items are scrunched together and not legible. How can this be avoided or styled?
Please when asking for help provide a link so that people can see the result and the code. Otherwise it is just a big guessing game.

Ensure List/Menu populate my update form with the correct data before update
Hello,
Please how do I ensure my update form is populated with the correct data before update?
On my update page I have text fields and select fields (dynamic list/menu). When I open my profile page to make updates, I see the field well positioned in the text fields but in the select list/menu fields, I see "Select from list" instead of the value that was initiated selected
Correct Values before update
Wrong values during update
As you can see from the images below, when I open the update page, the list automatically populate the select fields with the last values in the list instead of the Initial values that where selected by the user before the update.
Can anyone please review and let me know where I have gone wrong.
Thank you
MikeHello All,
Once more thank you. I have sorted the issue out.
I observed that I was selecting the wrong field. I selected the field matching the record set of the select instead of the field matching the record set of the table I am working as seen on the image belew
I was selecting this - This is the record set of the table that hold values for the city select list
Instead of this. This is the record set of the table behind the form I am working on
My issue is now re-solved.

How do I pass a username form variable from a drop down list/menu to another page?
Hi,
I have a login_success.php page that has a drop down list/menu (which lists usernames). I want the user to click on their user name, and when they click the submit button the username information to be passed over to the username.php page which will contain a recordset, sorted by username.
How do I pass the username info from the drop down list/menu to the username.php page?
The drop down menu is connected to a recordset listUsername, I have filtered the recordset with the Form Variable = username, and I have used the POST method to send the username to the page username.php. I'm not sure how to structure the php or which page to place it on.
<form id="form1" name="form1 method="post" action="username.php">
<label for="username_id">choose username:</label>
<select name="username_id" id-"username_id">
<option value="1">username1</option>
<option value="2">username2</option>
<option value="3">username3</option>
<option value="4">username4</option>
</select>
<input type="submit" name="send" id="send" value="Submit" />
<input type="username" type="hidden" id="username" value="<?php echo $row_listUsername['username']; ?>" />
</form>
Could somebody help me please?
Thanks.I would not post the variable over, In this case I personally would send it through the URL and use the $_GET method to retreve it. For Example.
<html>
<head>
<title>Test Page</title>
<script type="text/javascript">
function userID(){
//var ID = form1.userIDs.selectedIndex;
var user = form1.userIDs.options[form1.userIDs.selectedIndex].value;
window.location = "test.html?userID=" + user;
</script>
</head>
<body>
<form id="form1">
<select name="userIDs" id="userIDs" onchange="userID();">
<option>Select a User</option>
<option value="1">User 1</option>
<option value="2">User 2</option>
<option value="3">User 3</option>
<option value="4">User 4</option>
</select>
</form>
</body>
</html>
//PAGE TO RETRIEVE THE USERNAME
<?php
if(isset($_GET['userID'])
$userID = $_GET['userID'];
echo $userID;

List/Menu Form hides Main nav dropdown
I've created an html page that when you scroll over the main
nav bar at the top, the drop down, or 2nd level headers, drop down
'behind' a list/menu form? Any ideas on how to fix this?There are only two options, since list/menus are "ACTIVE
CONTENT" and
therefore always rise to the top of the page since they are
always being
redrawn by the browser -
1. Redesign the page so that you move the list/menu out of
danger, or
2. Create some custom js to hide the list/menu when that
particular submenu
opens

Populate List/Menu in Update Record form
I am creating an update record form that contains a list/menu
(with values General, 2002, 2004, 2006)
How do I populate this menu so that it pulls current value
from database, and not just the top default value each time?Swn-Y-Mor wrote:

Select the menu object in the form. Then click the Dynamic
button in the
Property Inspector. In the dialog box that opens, click the
lightning
bolt next to Select value equal to. Finally, choose the data
field from
the correct recordset.

Big Thanks for Menu Remote Setting from Ch. Play Lists
Just before I handed over a DVD with 5 menus and 19 Ch. Play Lists, I was reading old posts on the EncoreDVD Forum. In several posts, many of the regulars pointed out a potential problem with Menu Remote, being set to "Return to Last Menu," rather than being physically set to return to the specific menu, from which that Ch. Playlist was launched.
I had not known of this problem, beforehand, and was just assuming that "Return to Last Menu," was OK, as it was what I intended. I had not tested my Project 100% from the +RW, as I do not normally use the Menu Remote button, and all else was as I wanted it.
I made the corrections to the specific Menus for the final, and then tested the +RW again - about half of the time, the Menu Remote took me back to the Main Menu! Not what I wanted, but had not bothered checking. Much better to know now, than when the client is screening the DVD and this is creating a problem.
Thanks for the H/U on this little glitch, and providing the easy solution to it. The forums at their best!!!!
I also understand that this little quirk has been addressed and fixed in CS3.
HuntOops,
Missed the sub-forum by two. This was supposed to go in Playlists. Maybe JerryK, or KingLeonard will move it. Sorry about clicking the wrong line.

Http Session combing HTML forms and List / Menu Components
My problem is the following one... I have a .jsp page that includes a form with three List / Menu Components. I want my second List / Menu Component to be filled with data depending on the selection I have made to the first List / Menu Components. (Of course there is a MYSQL database behind). And I want the third List Menu Component to be filled with data depending on the selection I have made to the second one.
Three options:
1) use incredibly large javascript arrays to hold the data for the second and third lists and use onChange events in the first and second list to alter the list contents based on selection
2) use ajax calls to fetch the data for the second and third list, still using javascript events to listen for selections.
3) do a form submit on each selection and fill the lists server side.
The third option is of course by far the easiest, but that will give you submits in between that you may not want. Ajax is a good solution to this problem in my opinion. -
Problems setting up my forms (was: Forms)
Hi
I'm having trouble with setting up my forms, When I send the message no pop up message says its sent but I do recieve the email but with no content.
Can anyone please advise me? my two PHP and HTML code is below.
HTML Code:
<form method="post" id="contactform">
<div class="row">
<div class="span4">
<input type="text" class="prepared-input w100" id="contactname" value="Name">
</div>
<div class="span4">
<input type="email" class="prepared-input w100" id="contactemail" value="E-mail">
</div>
</div>
<div class="divide10 hidden-phone"></div>
<textarea id="contactmessage" class="prepared-input w100" rows="3">Message</textarea>
<div class="divide10"></div>
<input id="From_Comment_Go" type="submit" class="btn btnmc1 white" value="Send Message">
</form>
PHP Code:
<?php
$to = '[email protected]';
//Language Options
$contact_labelmailhead = 'Contact Form Email';
$contact_labelmailsubject = 'Contact Form Email from';
$contact_labelname = 'Name';
$contact_labelemail = 'Email';
$contact_labelmessage = 'Message';
$name = trim($_POST['name']);
$email = trim($_POST['email']);
$message = str_replace(chr(10), "<br>", $_POST['message']);
$body = "<html><head><title>$contact_labelmailhead</title></head><body><br>";
$body .= "$contact_labelname: <b>" . $name . "</b><br>";
$body .= "$contact_labelemail <b>" . $email . "</b><br>";
$body .= "$contact_labelmessage:<br><br><b>" . $message . "</b><br>";
$body .= "<br></body></html>";
$subject = $contact_labelmailsubject.'[email protected]' . $name;
$header = "From: $email\n" . "MIME-Version: 1.0\n" . "Content-type: text/html; charset=utf-8\n";
mail($to, $subject, $body, $header);
?>Now nothing in my inbox.
This is the first time I have worked with forms and I am not familiar with php. The template providor has gone walkabout and left me in lerch abit.

How to change a list/menu to a text field when 'Other' is chosen?
Hi there. I've been trying to solve this for a week now and I have depleted all my resources, that is why I'm here. I even went to jquery but nothing works and I think I was over-complicating this way too much.
In short: I have a contact form, which have a list/menu with validation, and one of the options of that list/menu is "other". What I want is that when the user select "other" automatically change to a text field in order to let the user put his custom color. This is what I have:
<form method="post" action="process.php">
<span id="spryselect1">
<label for="colors"></label>
<select name="colors" id="colors">
<option selected="option1">Blue.</option>
<option value="option2">White</option>
<option value="option3">Red</option>
<option value="other">other</option>
</select>
<span class="selectRequiredMsg">Please select a colour.</span></span>
<input type="submit" value="Send">
</form>
I know now that the approach is to show/hide a separate textbox besides the other... well. I don't know how to implement that, I think I really need your help guys. I'm completely frustrated.
Thanks in advance.Have a look at the following

List/Menu (multiple selected) insert into MySQL
I have been building a feedback form and I am running into a
issue that when I place a list/menu that allows multiple selections
when I submit my form in my MySQL database it collected the
information but only on the last multiple selection.
For example, this is what my list/menu looks like.
<select name="occasion" size="5" multiple="MULTIPLE"
id="occasion">
<option value="Spur of the moment,">Spur of the
moment</option>
<option value="Family dinner">Family
dinner</option>
<option value="Special occasion (i.e.
birthday)">Special occasion (i.e. birthday)</option>
<option value="Office get together">Office get
together</option>
<option value="Romantic dinner">Romantic
dinner</option>
<option value="Night out with friends">Night out with
friends</option>
<option value="Business meeting">Business
meeting</option>
<option value="Other">Other</option>
</select>
And my MySQL database I have it set up as...
Field Type
occasion mediumtext
I do not know why I cannot have more than one selection
inputed into my field, what must I do to correct this? Everything
works perfectly expect the multi selected list/menu. I want to
place all that is selected in the list/menu in that one database
field called occasion..oO(MikeL7)

Nope. An E_NOTICE error won't terminate the script, but
shouldn't happen
nevertheless. While developing, the error_reporting directive
should be
set to E_ALL|E_STRICT and _all_ reported problems should be
solved. It's
not only better coding style, but also helps to prevent real
errors. In
this particular case it was just a guess, because it was only
a part of
the code. But using an uninitialized variable with a '.='
operator for
example would lead to a notice, which should be fixed.

Yes, something like that.

All are correct and won't be deprecated. IMHO it's more or
less just
personal preference. It also depends on the used editor and
its syntax
highlighting capabilities. For example I use Eclipse/PDT for
all my PHP
scripts, which can also highlight variables inside a string.
But if the
above is your preferred way, there's nothing really wrong
with it.
Just some additional thoughts:
Personally I prefer as less escaping and concatenating as
possible,
because such a mixture of single quotes, double quotes, dots
and
sometimes even escaped quote signs (for example when printing
HTML)
_really_ confuses me. I like to keep my code clean and
readable.
Something like this:
print "<img src=\"".$someVar."\" ...>\n";
not only hurts my eye, it is also quite error-prone. It's
easy to miss a
quote or a backslash and get a parse error back, especially
in editors
with limited syntax highlighting (or none at all). So I would
prefer
print "<img src='$someVar' ...>\n";
or even
printf("<img src='%s' ...>\n", $someVar);
When it comes to performance issues, of course there's a
difference
between the various methods. But for me they don't really
matter. In
practice you usually won't notice any difference between an
echo, a
print or a printf() call for example, as long as you don't
call them
a million times in a loop.
So I always just use the method that leads to the most
readable code.
In many cases, especially when a lot of variables or
expressions are
involved, (s)printf() wins. Not for performance, but for
readability.
But as said - personal preference. YMMV.

Please help! How can I validate Radio Buttons and List Menu with PHP.
Hello everyone, I have been learning PHP step by step and
making little projects.
The point is I find it easy to learn by doing "practical
projects."
I have been reading the David Powers's Book on PHP Solutions
and it's really great, however there is nothing mentioned regarding
Validating Radio buttons. I know the book cannot cover every aspect
of PHP and maybe someone in here can help.
I have been learning how to process HTML forms with PHP.
The problem is every book or tutorial I have read or
encountered fall short on validation.
I'm wondering how I can learn to validate Radio Buttons and
Select List Menu.
I have managed to create validation for all other fields but
have no clue as to how I can get validation for Radio Buttons and
List Menu.
I would also like an error message echoed when the user does
not click a button or make a selection and try to submit the form.
I would appreciate any help.
PatrickIt's not that default value is "None." In fact it's not. It
will only be
"none" when the form is submitted.
Also if your submit button is names 'send' then
$_POST['send'] will only be
set if the form was submitted.
Make sure you didn't hit the refresh button on your browser
which usually
reposts the information. Also make sure you did not reach the
form from
another form with the same button names.
Otherwise paste the snippet.
Also you can check what fields are set in the post array by
adding this to
the top of (or anywhere on) your page:
print_r($_POST);

my problem is that i have to populate a list box of called form according to the value supplied by calling form.Declare global variable at calling form and use it in called form to populate list box.
but form is called through menus.There is no issue with the menus.
so first i need to pass that value to the menu .mmx and then menu.mmx will pass that value to calling forms.
so please let me know how can i pass a value from form.fmx to menu.mmx.A global variable is available through out the user session. So it's not any other issue to use in within that session. In same session you can use it where you want.
Hope it's clear to you.
