Menu list

[jay_bo]

I have created a drop down menu and i wanted to know if it is possible using php, to echo out text depending on which item was selected.

 

For example; User selects item one, the php echos out 'You have selected price one'

 

echo '<select name="select">';
echo '<option value=$row["price"]>Size 9" - '.$row["price"].'</option>';
echo '<option value="4.39">Size 12" - '.$row["price"].'</option>';
echo '<option value="5.59">Size 14" - '.$row["price"].'</option>';
echo '</select>';

 

Thanks

echo '<select name="select">';
echo '<option value="1">Size 9" - '.$row["price"].'</option>';
echo '<option value="2">Size 12" - '.$row["price"].'</option>';
echo '<option value="3">Size 14" - '.$row["price"].'</option>';
echo '</select>';

//

$prices = array(1 => '', 2 => 4.39, 3 => 5.59);
if (isset($_POST['select'])) {
    if (isset($prices[$_POST['select']])) {
        echo 'You have selected price ', $_POST['select'], '(', $prices[$_POST['select']], ')';
    }
}

That didnt seem to do anything.

Is there not away of using an if statement to see which one is selected?

If you want it to appear immediately, you need javascript, not PHP.
