Dropdown Box From Database
I'm trying to display thousands of people's names so a user can pick
one. Is a dropdown the best way to do this? Is there a better way? I've
never had to deal with that many names, so I don't know how it will affect
performance.

It gives me a blank dropdown when there are values in the Currency Table and
it also does not display any form element that I place after this code.
<select size="1" name="Currency" >
<%
SQL = "Select CurrSymbol FROM Currency "
SET RS = CONN_STRING.Execute(SQL)
While NOT RS.EOF%>
<option value="<%=RS("CurrSymbol")%>"><%=RS("CurrSymbol")%></option>
<%
RS.MoveNext
WEND
Set RS = NOTHING
%>
</select>

I have two columns in my microsoft access database.
1st column is company_logo (jpg image)
2nd column is company_name (text)
I want to build a form, a dropdown box which I would populate with the help of a sql statement from my database. The both columns from up there are associated.
When the user clicks on that dropdown box, I need that company_logo and company_name to be shown one beside another. It should list all the companies availible (taken from that sql statement or recordset).
Does anyone knows if this could be done?
Maybe I should stick just with the textual part?

<select name="ccType">
<option value="Visa" selected="<%=rs("cardtype")%>" >Visa
<option value="Mastercard" selected="<%=rs("cardtype")%>">MasterCard
</select>

I have a category that I will call "company". in my access DB, there are about 6 or so companies. On another table, I have a list of locations that are related to these companies.
What I want to do, is have a drop down menu that lists all the companies. When you select the company, the second drop down menu will automatically populate with the locations of the company you selected in the first dropdown.
Anyone know any links to some examples of this? My google searches have been pretty fruitless since Im having a bit of a problem trying to explain it concisely (as you probably noticed).

I have code to present on this forum, but not with me at the moment. This is what is happening now. On my page there is a drop down box that calls on an onChange javascript function. The drop down box dynamically displays locations depending on the location of the cars.
Therefore...if Toyota Camrys are in Philadelphia and New York, the drop-down box will display: ALL, Philadelphia, and New York. Selecting one will filter out only those in that location.
What i want to do is...change it so...it displays dynamically the locations horizontally...here is an example: PREFERED LOCATION? ALL PHILADELPHIA NEW YORK (all are links to filter out those that do not match the location).
i need to do it to save space and make it more user-friendly.

I know this is supposed to be easy but I can't get this to work. I
have a dropdown that pulls all the Projects (tp_title) available. All
I want to do is get the ID (tp_id) of that record so I can get the
developer assigned to that project (tp_assigned_to). Then, when I get
the developer, I need that to be redirected to a second page. Code:

Lets say you have a dropdown box with few options in it. Several products have such a dropdown box. is there a way to do this following stuff.
I want one of that options in the dropdown box to be 'unique'. When selected, it would dissapear, or it can't be clicked on, on another product's dropdown. 'yes or no' answer would do just fine for now.

i have a web page which allows user to update Subject information. There may be several subjects in the dropdown box. However, each person will have a subject allocated to him when he is inserted into the database.
As such, now when i want to update his particulars, in the Subject dropdown box, i would like to set his Subject to the one in the database followed by the rest which he can choose.
Eg.
Originally, Subject = Literature
Update:
in Subject dropdown box, i will see Literature at default but when i click the dropdown box, i will see the other options such as History, Gepgraphy etc. How should i go about doing this?

I have seen some techniques like this on the web. Currently, I'm using Combo
box which values came from database table. One disadvantage is when the
combo box have lots of values, users are complaining since you cannot use
keyboard to search the value that is needed.

I have a dropdown box getting data from a database, and I send the data to the database on form submition, But, I need to send another data to another column to the database according with the user dropdown box selecion. Example.
Dropdown option 1: DELL Corp.
Dropdown option 2: IBM Corp.
Dropdown option 3: Avante Systems
If the user select DELL Corp., it will send 'DELL Corp.' to the database but I need it to send dell.jpg to another column too. I have the code to send the data, but the relationship of the boxes is 'the thing'.
A solution almost like bellow is what I am looking for, but instead of, the selection in the first combo should point to another selecion in the second combo (so the second combo will have the dell.jpg value): http://forums.aspfree.com/code-bank...own-137839.html

i now have my dropdown connected to my database. everytime the user adds a new record, he simply has to choose a Department from the dropdown menu. However, when he tries to edit that record, the value that he has chosen from the dropdown and has been saved to the database cannot be retrieved in the dropdown menu.
so i want to retrieve the data from the database INTO THE DROPDOWN so it would be the default value of that dropdown menu when the user edits his specific record.

when inserting on the database,the value of the dropdown option is the same as the value of the textbox which is wrong.they must not have the same values example
when Pan is selected,then the value inserted to the database must be "pam" not Arnold.
