How could I do this?

[davespring]

Ive got a simple lottery game, and am using an sql database to keep track of the numbers bought. But, when the person comes to buy the ticket, I have to replay to my process page which ticket they want. How could I do this?

 

<?php
session_start();
$page = array();
$page['title'] = 'OpenTheBox | DuffLotto';
$number = 1;
include('header.php');
require_once('/home/davespri/hidden/dbcon.php');

echo '<h1>OpenTheBox - The Original Community Game</h1>';
echo '<center>
Available Numbers
</center>';
$connect = mysql_connect($host, $user, $pass);
if (!$connect) {
die('Unable to connect to Mysql');
}
mysql_select_db('davespri_Gamerecords', $connect);
$result = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM OpenTheBox2");
echo "<center><table border='1'><tr><th>Slot:</th><th>Taken by:</th></tr>";
while ($row = mysql_fetch_array($result)) {
echo "<tr>";
if ($row['Nickname'] = 'NULL') {
	$row['Nickname'] = "<center><form action=http://dufflotto.hostcell.net method=post>
<input type=submit value=Buy! name=" . $row['Slot'] . ">
</form>";

	}
echo "<td>" . $row['Slot'] . "</td>";
echo "<td>" . $row['Nickname'] . "</td>";
echo "</tr>";
}
echo "</center></table></center>";
include('footer.php');
?>

I would store it in a session until the sale is complete.
