Combo box on click suggestion

mihirpatel83 · December 24, 2010

Hello everyone,

I am new to PHP to so please bear with me. I need suggestion to achieve a task.

I have to make a form where in initially there will be a combox box. Depending onthe selection ie value1, value2, value3 etc.......a sub form should open below the combo box.

This forms r different for different value...and at the end there will be a submit button to submit the form.

Can anyone tell me the how many ways this is possible and which is the efficient one.???

Thanks a lot in advance....

Here's a quick example:

<html>

<body>

<script type="text/javascript">

function showForm(formName)
{
if(formName.length > 0)
{
	document.forms["form1"].style.display = "none";
	document.forms["form2"].style.display = "none";
	document.forms["form3"].style.display = "none";

	document.forms[formName].style.display = "";
}
}

</script>

<select onchange="showForm(this.value)">
	<option value="">Select a form...</option>
	<option value="form1">Form 1</option>
	<option value="form2">Form 2</option>
	<option value="form3">Form 3</option>
</select>

<form name="form1" style="display:none;">
	form1: <input type="hidden" name="selected_form" value="form1">

	<input type="text" name="test1" /><br />
	<input type="submit" value="Submit 1" />
</form>

<form name="form2" style="display:none;">
	form2: <input type="hidden" name="selected_form" value="form2">

	<input type="text" name="test2" /><br />
	<input type="submit" value="Submit 2" />

</form>

<form name="form3" style="display:none;">
	form3: <input type="hidden" name="selected_form" value="form3">

	<input type="text" name="test3" /><br />
	<input type="submit" value="Submit 3" />

</form>

</body>
