geldd001 Posted June 19, 2013 Share Posted June 19, 2013 Hello, I wrote a small exportscript for data. One of the values I have to export is called valuta. The export will result in an export of only the value: array. It is a dropdown menu with predevined values. In the export I need the value. My script: $DataFile = "data.txt"; $valuta = $_POST['form']['Valuta']; $fp = fopen($DataFile, 'w') or die('Could not open file!'); fwrite($fp, "$valuta") or die('Could not write to file'); fclose($fp); Probable an easy one for someone not being a newbee with PHP? Thanx in advance Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/279353-dropdown-result-in-textfile/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

Barand Posted June 19, 2013 Share Posted June 19, 2013 Why such a complex name for the select? Instead of <select name='valuta' ... > Then access it with $_POST['valuta'] Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/279353-dropdown-result-in-textfile/#findComment-1436852 Share on other sites More sharing options...
