how to pass single value to the script

[Baabu]

here is the code

<form action="update.php" method="get">
<?php

	while($row=mysql_fetch_array($result))
	{
		echo "<br>";

?>

<input type="text" name="qty" size="2">

<input type="hidden" name="model" value="<?php echo $row["model"];?>">
<input type="hidden" name="type" value="<?php echo $row["type"];?>">
<input type="submit" value="update">


<?php		

echo "<br>";
echo $row["type"];
echo "<br>";
echo $row["model"];
echo "<br>";
echo $row["price"];

?>

can anyone tell me that how should i arrange this <input> tag that only the value which needs to be updated it should be passed to the next script? as this code is working but when i click update rest of the other types are also passed to the script update.php which is not required so how should i do that only the pressed value is passed only

 

this is what happens

http://localhost/mobile/update.php?qty=&model=2100&type=Nokia&qty=2&model=1100&type=Nokia

i want it to be passed as

http://localhost/mobile/update.php?qty=2&model=1100&type=Nokia

why are u using a form to do this, you aren't updating anything at all.

 

Explain your goals

Can't be done as it is a field in the form. You best bet is if possible, not even use GET but use POST instead which hides the whole query string from the url so it would look like this:

 

http://localhost/mobile/update.php

 

Other than that if it is on the form, it will be passed in the query string.

Well if some one wants to change the quantity it will be in this box

<input type="text" name="qty" size="2">

and then he presses the update button the values of model and type must be sent in order to update the quantity of the selected model and type

 

[Baabu]

but if i use post the how would i know that which model and which quantity the script should do the update ???

[premiso]

$_POST['model']

$_POST['qty']

 

But as stated above you have no visible code to do anything with the data.

this isn't perfect but it will work

<?php
echo "<form method=\"get\" action=\"".$_SEVER['PHP_SELF']."\">";
foreach($_GET as $key => $value){
echo "<input type=\"hidden\" name=\"".$key."\" value=\"".$value."\" />\n";
}
$i = 1;
$max = 50;
echo "<select name=\"qty\">";
while($i <= $max){
echo "<option value=\"".$i."\">".$i."</option>\n";
$i++;
}

echo "<input type=\"submit\" value=\"update\"></form>";
?>

well i just want the link to be only

http://localhost/mobile/update.php?qty=*&model=***&type=***

 

currently i have no concerns with data that what it should do or not
