aashcool198 Posted June 5, 2009 Share Posted June 5, 2009 I have created a program in which user can create his profile and edit it. There is one dropdown box. <select name="dep" > <option value ="">Please Select</option> <option value ="Devlopers">Devlopers</option> <option value ="web">Web</option> </select> What i want that when the user clicks on edit profile. In edit page the value shown in combo-box should be same as what he filled in previously. using database (where the previous value is stored) how can i do this? Please help!

Daniel0 Posted June 5, 2009 Share Posted June 5, 2009 For each option, check if the value corresponds to the previously selected value. If it does, mark it as selected.
