giraffemedia Posted January 23, 2008 Share Posted January 23, 2008 Hi guys i've got a page on my website for a sports scorecard to be entered. This consists of a form with 11 rows (one for each player) each consisting of player_name, runs_scored and runs_total entries. I have a seperate table in my db called player_profiles and i'm using this to pull in a list/menu of player names in the player_name entry. I have this working fine for one name, however i'm trying to get 11 rows performing the same SELECT query and the only way I can get it to work is having multiple (11) SELECT queries and multiple (11) while loops to populate the lists. is there any other way of doing this, or am I doing the right thing? If I have 1 SELECT query and use more than 1 list/menu, the first one works fine, but all other return with blank values - I presume because i've already pulled the data from the db. Anyone have any idea? Regards James Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/87388-multiple-drop-menus-from-table-in-one-form/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

revraz Posted January 24, 2008 Share Posted January 24, 2008 Read the sticky up top on how to post a message and get answers. It's hard to help you when you don't post relevant code, but it appears you are not looping through the results. Anyone have any idea?
