I am trying to use a <select> <option> to display text on a web page. The data comes from a database. This is what I am attempting: When an option is selected and submit button clicked them some text will be displayed. At the moment I do have text on the web page, but none of the selected options change this. I have four pieces of text: Page 1, Page 2 etc. At the moment Page 4 text is displayed. I would like each piece of text to be displayed. This is the php: <?php // Connect to the database $pdo = new PDO("mysql:host=localhost;dbname=###", "###", ""); $sql = "SELECT * FROM testdb ORDER BY id"; try { $stmt = $pdo->prepare($sql); $stmt->execute(); $data = $stmt->fetchAll(); } catch(Exception $ex){ echo ($ex -> getMessage()); } ?> This is the html: <form name="###" method="post" action="#"> <p></p> <select onchange="reload(this.form)"> <option>test one</option> <?php foreach ($data as $output) { ?> <option value=''><?php echo $output['header']; ?></option> <?php } ?> </select> <br> <button type="submit" value="submit">Submit</button> </form> <?php echo $output['pages']; ?> I would appreciate help with this. However, from previous attempts at adding data to a page I used isset() and I think $_POST(), possibly together. If these are the things I need to use, then please could you include their usage within any examples you feel would help. Thank you.
