What exactly are you trying to do? Add a drop down list to your form and have the option selected emailed in your form?

What did you try that didn't work?

[tsiedsma]

Here is a snippet from one of my forms:
[code]
        <tr>
          <td class="form">Relationship:</td>
          <td class="form"><select name="status">
              <option value="FA">Family
              <option value="FR">Friend
              <option value="BU">Employer
              <option value="OT">Other
            </select></td>
          <td class="form">Please select one option </td>
        </tr>
[/code]

When that form submits, the form processor has this code to interpret the form data that was submitted:

[code]
$status = $_POST['status'];

if (!$status) {
echo '<center><h1>You did not submit the following required information!</h1></center><br />';
    if(!$status){
        echo "Relationship is a required field. Please enter it below.<br />";
    }
[/code]

I have an email function setup as well, setup my headers:
[code]
$headers  = "MIME-Version: 1.0\n";
$headers .= "Content-type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1\n";
$headers .= "From: $sender\n";
[/code]
And then I add my data to an array first.
[code]
$send = array (
    'status'    => $status,
    );
[/code]
And then I setup the body of the mail message:
[code]
$body  = "Status: ".$send['status'];
[/code]
And then I send the message:
[code]
mail ("yourname@yourdomain.com" , $subject, $body, $headers);
[/code]
