adding extra textboxes when needed

[runnerjp]

i have a profile site for runners and im wanting to be able to have users enter ther personal bests for distances such as:

distance    time

5000m        14:05

3000m        8:32

 

but i would like it so users can select there times and distances from drop down menus and click a button the adds anouther set of distcnes and times for them to add. Also users will need to be able to chnage existing times but im not really shore how to do this and could do with a point in the right direction.

 

i have included a picture to try and help you guys out with what im looking for..

 

so basicly all i want is so that if a user wants to add a new pb then the click an add button and a new drop down menu and textbox apprear to add more information too...

you would need to do this using javascript this way the add button does not have to reload the page

ok but would it not involve php to add the box... and say if a users adds 3 boxes with pbs how would i get the boxes to stay with there obs in lol

[dennismonsewicz]

yes it would involve php... your inputs would be saved into an array so that php can parse the data.

 

<input type="text" name="distance[]" />

 

Notice the brackets after the name
