jazzman1 Posted January 5, 2013 Share Posted January 5, 2013 It shouldn't have a comma before the sql from clause! Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/272730-can-anyone-help-me/#findComment-1403441 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Love2c0de Posted January 5, 2013 Share Posted January 5, 2013 Hello, just had a look. Give this code a try: require_once 'myconn.php'; $sql = "SELECT course_id, course_name FROM course"; $result = mysql_query($sql); echo "<label>Select Course</label>"; echo "<select>"; while($row = mysql_fetch_array($result)) { echo "<option value='{$row['course_id']}'>{$row['course_name']}</option>"; } echo "</select>"; You might also want to check what the query returned before trying to use it's value. Hope it helps, Kind regards, L2c. Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/272730-can-anyone-help-me/#findComment-1403442 Share on other sites More sharing options...
