pre loading form from dropdown

Recommended Posts

im not very experienced with ajax, so im here to ask how i would be able to preload a form based on a dropdown list of Id numbers. so if i select id 3467 from my dropdown, the information gets loaded into the form for editing.  i think my more specific question is what should my php script return?

The commonly used, interchangeable data format is called "JSON". It's completely up to you how you structure the return though. In this case I'd expect an array containing an option value and display value for each item in the list, perhaps use a multi-dimensional array if you'd like to tack on extras such as "selected". That make sense?
