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.
I am planning to build a basic page that brings up images from a Database based on keywords.
View Replies View RelatedI have an sql statement like this executed with asp and mysql.
select * from table1, table2, table3
How can I read a specific field from a table when tables have same fieldnames.
So for example table1 and table2 have both a field named content.
What I would like to do is:
contenttable1 = recordset("table1.content")
contenttable2 = recordset("table2.content")
But then I get an error like item not found in recordset.
If i do this it works but i don't know which field I read from:
contenttable? = recordset("content")
I know that it works with Access but I can't get it working with MySQL.
Ive got a tool that is taking sugestions and updates from users and then generating a unique id based on the date and ID Autonumber field from an access db. I am using the addnew method b/c it is the way i know to immediately retrieve the id.. The problem is im trying to add the id back into the record on the same call. Is this possible?
My code is as follows but i seem to be getting duplicate records with unique id's.. But the thing that seems strange to me is that both records have their own unique id. If this were the case i would think that the first record would not have the unique id b/c it is not generated until after the first update call? Code:

A problem recently cropped up that I have not seen before and I am wondering anyone has seen this one?
The 2 SQl Select statements on my ASP page differ by the addition of one column ("Description") but in the 2nd case, column content is dropped (blank). I can get somewhat different results by adding other columns to the Select. Code:
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).
Does anyone have any code to display a dynamic dropdown menu (similar to Windows Start menu)? There seems to be a browser compatability problem with most that I've seen.

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.

View Replies View RelatedLets 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.
Now that I can store variables from a form listbox into a session variable... say there are 4 options from the dropdown like
model
type
area
performance
and the user selects performance.. I store the string "performance". now how do I place it back into the listbox after the user hits 'submit'? that way the selected values are shown.
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 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'.
