And this is the entire contents of the file "process.php"? It doesn't even go to line 118?

 

Regardless of the file though...im not sure I have ever seen concatenation >> to an if statement >> to an echo statement ( don't think that is valid syntax...)

[sstangle73]

no i figured the rest of the file would be a little excessive. well thats what im tring to figure out how to show the field they picked in the echo

 

118 is  <option value=\"BU23\" " . if($team == "BU23"){echo "/"selected/"";} . ">Boys U23</option>

Are we to assume that the user has the opportunity to choose a team to try out for earlier in the code?  If so, why not include a statement in the code that looks something like this:

 

if($_POST['team_tryout'] == "null"){
    echo "Please select a team to try out for."
   }
   else{
     //continue code here
}
         

 

If you would like to achieve the same effect without leaving your initial form that we are getting these posts from, include some javascript in the header that tests to see if there is a selection.

<script language="Javascript">
function validate(form) {
var elem = form.elements;

if (elem.team_tryout.value == null) {
	alert ('Please check your team tryout selection.');
	return false;
	}
else {
return true;
}

}
</script>

 

Then put in your form onsubmit="return validate(this);"

 

I'm making a few assumptions here, but I hope this helps.
