pancgom Posted April 3, 2008 Share Posted April 3, 2008 I have a table (mySQL) in which there is data which contains name, empID, department. Now i have a form built in PHP which has the name, empID and department fields, this form is used to retrieve information from the table mentioned above and display. the name field is a drop down menu list (combo box) which lists all the names in the table drawn from the database. Upon selecting a name the corresponding details to that particular name such as empID and Department should display in the respective fields in the php retrieval form. How do i retrieve and display names in the combo box and how to display the other information in the fields corresponding to the name is my question?. Can i have the code for that please... i have been trying to do this for long with different things maybe i am new i am not able to even figure out what is going on...please help...
