Hello,

 

I am trying create a news article, but I have few category in it. Can you help me to create an "add article form" which has dropdown list of category that I can choose, so when I select "Announcement" it will save the data on my mysql database under announcement table. sample html form below.

 

<form id="form1" name="form1" method="post" action="">

  <label>

  Category :

  <select name="category" id="category">

    <option>--- choose category ---</option>

    <option>News</option>

    <option>Announcement</option>

    <option>Sports</option>

  </select>

  </label>

  <br />

  Date: <br />

  Title:

  <label>

  <input type="text" name="title" id="title" />

  </label>

  <br />

  Body:

  <label>

  <textarea name="body" id="body" cols="45" rows="5"></textarea>

  </label>

  <br />
