kidphantom Posted April 9, 2011 Share Posted April 9, 2011 I am new to PHP and currently trying to develop a website... i am stuck at one place. Lets say i'm a user(mrX) that has 4 types of car that are Ferrari, Lamborghini, Evo and BMW. So, i will register to the system about my details and all of my car info such as their cc, transmission, plat number, engine capacity. Then, i will log on into the system and after log on, there will be a drop down list. If i pick Ferrari for example, under the drop down list there will be all the information about the car. The same on the other car also.
