Forum - Auto Submiting on select

[derrick1123]

I have a forum that needs to be submitted on click.

<form method=get>
<select name=listen>
<option value=<? echo $one; ?>>Charr Radio</option>
<option value=<? echo $two; ?>>Metal</option>
<option value=<? echo $three; ?>>Classic Rock</option>
<input type=submit value=Listen>
</select>
</form>

Needs to be something like?

<form method=get>
<select name=listen>
<option value=<? echo $one; ?> type=submit>Charr Radio</option>
<option value=<? echo $two; ?> type=submit>Metal</option>
<option value=<? echo $three; ?> type=submit>Classic Rock</option>
</select>
</form>

Requires JavaScript, you create a submit function that you must attach

to the SELECT onchange event. You should provide and an alternate for

folks who have JavaScript disabled.

 

try this

<form method="POST" name="stats_order" action="members.php?view=stats">
<select name="order" onchange="this.form.submit()">
<option value="date_asc" selected>Date ASC</option>
<option value="date_desc">Date DESC</option>
<option value="name_asc">Name ASC</option>
<option value="name_desc">Name DESC</option>
<option value="rating_asc">Rating ASC</option>
<option value="rating_desc">Rating DESC</option></select>  
<noscript><input type="submit" value="Submit"></noscript>
</form>

Doesn't require javascript at all - the first method posted will work - kind of. Lots of syntax errors, but at its core, the theory is solid. You will need to add a name attribute to each of the submit buttons, then check to see if the post value of that name has been submitted on whatever page, and if it has, find out what the value is.

The first one I used the code on, didn't work. So the second one was just showing what I thought would work. I don't mind using java, I just don't really understand it.

I was wrong actually, this will require javascript if you want it to go on change. I didn't look closely enough at your code the first time. Put this in the javascript forum.
