array issues

[cybernet]

i have two pages

form and submit page

index.php

<?php 
error_reporting(E_ALL);
$bauturi = array('bauturi_alcoolice'=>'Bauturi alcoolice','sucuri'=>'Sucuri','bauturi_racoritoare'=>'Bauturi racoritoare'); 
echo '<form action="post.php" method="post">';

echo'<select name="bauturi">'; 

foreach($bauturi as $let=>$word){ 
    echo'<option value="'.$let.'">'.$word.'</option>'; 
} 
echo'</select>';
echo '<INPUT type="submit" value="show me money">

</form>';
?> 

post.php

<?php 
error_reporting(E_ALL);

$drop = $_REQUEST['bauturi']; 
echo $drop;
?>

if i select Bauturi alcoolice on post.php page i get bauturi_alcoolice

but i want to get Bauturi alcoolice as result

 

i tried to use foreach like this

<?php 
error_reporting(E_ALL);

$drop = $_REQUEST['bauturi']; 
$bauturi = array('bauturi_alcoolice'=>'Bauturi alcoolice','sucuri'=>'Sucuri','bauturi_racoritoare'=>'Bauturi racoritoare'); 
foreach($bauturi as $drop=>$word){ 
echo $word;
echo "<br/>";
unset($word);
}
?>

 

but i get all the values in the form

i only want to show the selected value from the form in post.php page

 

thanks in advance

foreach($bauturi as $word){ 
    echo'<option>'.$word.'</option>'; 
}

i don't think you understood me

index.php is flawless ( i think )

if on index.php i select Bauturi alcoolice on post page i wanna get Bauturi alcoolice

 

this code is good

<?php 
error_reporting(E_ALL);

$drop = $_REQUEST['bauturi']; 
echo $drop;
?>

but as result i get bauturi_alcoolice instead of the value that is equal with it

I understood exactly.  Did you try what I posted?  index.php is not flawless, you are sending the array key bauturi_alcoolice as the value instead of send the value Bauturi alcoolice as the value.  I'm not even sure why you are setting a key name in your array.  With the code I posted, this works just as well:

 

$bauturi = array('Bauturi alcoolice','Sucuri','Bauturi racoritoare'); 

 

Also, there will be only one posted value, so no need for a loop in post.php.  Try:

 

echo $_POST['bauturi'];
