[A3aan]

Hi all,

i'm trying to fill a drop down list from a function, but the list stays empty.
Hope that you can help me out with this.

Here's my code:
[code]
<?php
require_once ('Connections/magicdb.php'); // db connect

function showEdition() {
$query = "SELECT edition_id, edition_name FROM editions ORDER BY edition_name" ;
$result = mysql_query($query) or die(mysql_error());
while($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($result)){
echo "<option value='$row[edition_id]'>$row[edition_name]</option>\n";
}
}
?>

<form>
<select>
<?php echo showEdition(); ?>
</select>
</form>
[/code]

Thnx in advance
