Hi everyone,

 

Sorry for this unusual question, so far i am able to query sql and display data using php ajax,

 

now i have got a scenario,

 

I got a text field (<input type='text' name='address'>) in my form which needs to be filled by the user. since I got addresses stored in database I thought to populate these addresses next to address field, than user can select from this new select populated address drop down or type his/her own address and the new dropdown should just close.

 

I am stuck, any advise would be greatly appreciated.

 

thanks for reading.

 

sorry here is the code sample:

 

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1" />
<title>Untitled Document</title>
<script type="text/javascript" language="javascript">
function populate()
{
if (document.form1.select.value != "")
{
document.form1.textfield.value = document.form1.select.value;
}
}
</script>
</head>

<body>
<form id="form1" name="form1" method="post" action="">
<p>
//****** This needs to be populated dynamically using php ajax from address table. ****///
<select name="select" onchange="populate();">
<option value="Roddy Dairion">Roddy</option>
<option value="Roders Dairion">Roddy1</option>
<option value="Rodstar Dairion">Roddy2</option>
<option value="Mr Dairion">Roddy3</option>
</select>
</p>
<p>
<input type="text" name="textfield" />
</p>
</form>
</body>
</html>
