[SOLVED] Getting Select Form Info

[FlyingIsFun1217]

Hey... again

 

I'm attempting to gather the information from a dynamic select form. Here is what I currently have:

 

delete.php:

<?php
echo '<center>';

echo '<h1><u>Delete a Photo</u></h1>';

echo '<form action="deletePicture.php" method="post">';
	echo '<select name="photosInDirectory" id="photosInDirectory">';
		foreach(glob('*.jpg') as $picForDropDown)
		{
			echo '<option value="'.$picForDropDown.'">'.$picForDropDown.'</option>';
		}
	echo '</select>';

	echo '<input type="submit" value="Delete">';
echo '</form>';

echo '</center>';
?>

 

and deletePicture.php:

<?php
$picureToDelete = $_POST['photosInDirectory'];

echo $pictureToDelete;
?>

 

Seems not to work though. Basically, I'd like to get the full value of the option they selected (either the value or the display name, doesn't matter right now).

 

Thanks for the help again!

Somebody has to know... it just seems like it would be so simple :/

I just noticed that RIGHT before I looked here wishing that nobody had yet replied.

 

Thanks for your help though, I do appreciate it!

if it makes you feel any better, I first read your thread about 2 minutes after you posted it (like an hour ago), tested and messed around with it for about 15 minutes and gave up, thinking wtf why isn't this working, it should be working??  And came back in when you bumped it and saw it right off the bat, lol.
