0weavern Posted September 16, 2010 Share Posted September 16, 2010 I'm using a PHP helpdesk script, but when a customer submits a ticket, they are able to assign a category. I want to be able to have the category function so I can move tickets around, but only allow customers to assign to one. (Basically I want to hide the Select Box on the new ticket page) This is the code which displays the select box: <td style="text-align:right" width="150"><?php echo $hesklang['category']; ?>: <font class="important">*</font></td> <td width="80%"><select name="category"> Can you tell me what I can do to "hide" the category select box without getting rid of it? (The page requires a variable for category) Thanks Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/213572-select-help/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Psycho Posted September 16, 2010 Share Posted September 16, 2010 Just change it to a hidden field with the same name with whatever default value you want to use. Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/213572-select-help/#findComment-1111679 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Psycho Posted September 16, 2010 Share Posted September 16, 2010 That's what I'm asking for help on, how do you hide a field? I didn't say to hide the field, I said to make it a hidden field. There is a difference. The select field is created within a variable and you didn't show how that variable is created. But, here is the basic format of a hidden field <input type="hidden" name="foo" value="bar" /> Alternatively, you could keep it as a select field and hide it using CSS styles. <span style="display:none;">-- select field goes here --</span> Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/213572-select-help/#findComment-1111701 Share on other sites More sharing options...
