Get text from dropdown

[thebopps]

I have successfully retrieved text from a text box and inserted it into a mysql db using $_GET, now i wanted to see if anyone knows how to retrieve text from a drop box and pass it to the .php file that adds the fields from an html page to the mysql db.

[timmah1]

<select name="field" id="field">
<option value="<?php echo "$choice" ?>"><?php echo "$choice" ?></option>
        </select>

 

that should put you on the right path

use

 

print_r($_GET);

 

to see the all the values sent by the html page.
