rodlake Posted May 10, 2012 Share Posted May 10, 2012 Hello everyone !!! I am sorry if my vocabulary is not exact because english is not my first language. Also i am a newbie at PHP. I am doing this project for myself and if it work might be able to use it at work. But i am doing this to learn. I have been stuck on this problem for 2 weeks and i can t figure it out on my own. Ihave spend many hours searching forums but no success. Oh yeah i almost forgot some part of code are from me, some are scripts from internet i adapted. I have a form with a dropdown menu and when i submit the form the value selected in the dropdown would be inserted in a table. The problem i have is that whatever the value i select it always inserts the last value of the dropdown in the table??? The form is made with the dropdown as an include. It is populated with values from an another table. Here is the code for the dropdown list: <form> <select name="nom_pcu_form" method="post"> <?php $SQL = "SELECT * FROM pcu ORDER BY nom_pcu"; $res = mysql_query($SQL); while($val=mysql_fetch_array($res)) { $nom=$val["nom_pcu"]; $prenom=$val["prenom_pcu"]; $nom_complet = $prenom . $nom; echo "<option>".$val["nom_pcu"].", ".$val["prenom_pcu"]."</option>\n"; $nom_pcu_form="".$val["nom_pcu"].", ".$val["prenom_pcu"].""; } ?> </select> </form> Here is the part of the form wich calls the dropdown: <form name="form2" method="post" action="Grille ecoute Permanent.php"> <p>Nom : <?php include 'liste_deroulante_pcu.php' ;?> <p>no carte appel <input name="no_carte_appel" type="text" id="no_carte_appel"> </p> <?php echo date("Y/m/d"); ?> </form> And this is the part where it is inserted in the table: <?php if($_POST['doSubmit'] == 'Create') mysql_query("INSERT INTO grille_ecoute_pcu_permanent (`user_name`,`nom_pcu`,`no_carte_appel`,`question_1`,`question_2`,`question_3`,`question_4`, `question_5`,`question_6`,`question_7`,`question_8`,`question_9`,`question_10`,`question_11`,`question_12`,`question_13`,`question_14`,`question_15`, `question_16`,`question_17`,`question_18`,`question_19`,`question_20`,`question_21`,`question_22`,`question_23`,`question_24`,`question_25`,`question_26`, `question_27`,`question_28`,`question_29`) VALUES ('$user_name','$nom_pcu_form','$no_carte_appel','$question_1','$question_2','$question_3','$question_4','$question_5','$question_6', '$question_7','$question_8','$question_9','$question_10','$question_11','$question_12','$question_13','$question_14','$question_15','$question_16','$question_17', '$question_18','$question_19','$question_20','$question_21','$question_22','$question_23','$question_24','$question_25','$question_26','$question_27','$question_28', '$question_29') ") or die(mysql_error()); Note:$user_name and all $question are inserted correctly in the table. $nom_pcu_form is the dropdown and it only records the last value of the dropdown even if it s not the value selected. $no_carte_appel are not recorded at all Thx for your time Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/262338-unable-to-insert-into-table-value-from-dropdown-list/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
