  1. The drop down links to an ecommerce site. Basically: there is a dropdown with a certain categories products. Once a product is selected it would take you to that product page.
  2. Thanks for the reply. I have added the alterations as you mentioned to secure the data but I think maybe I have not explained myself properly (my fault). The dropdown populates okay and if I echo $pagelink it shows the correct link but when I add $pagelink to the header location it only allows the first item from the db to link okay, the rest just go to the homepage with http://www.xxxxxxxx/index.php I am completely stuck with this as it is echoing the results exactly as it should.
  3. Sorry. I don't understand. If I echo $pagelink I get the post variable shwoing okay? Appologies, im a bit rusty with all this. Thanks
  4. Hi, Thanks for the fast response. I have added the . to concatenate but it is still doing the same thing (only first option works, others just go to index page)
  5. Hi, My first post so please excuse if im ake any mistakes. I have a drop down that I am getting a post variable from with i am then trying to append an URL with. It works but only for the first option. Any help much appreciated. When I echo the $pagelink it shows the correct value but when I add it to the header location it just goes to the homepage of the site (except the first option)! My index.php: <?php // connect to db mysql_connect ("xxxxxx", "xxxxx","") or die (mysql_error()); mysql_select_db ("xxxxxx"); //query $sql = mysql_query('SELECT product_id, name FROM CubeCart_inventory'); $models = array(); while ($row = mysql_fetch_array($sql)){ $models[] = $row; } ?> <form action="config.php" method="POST"> <select name="battery"> <?php foreach ($models as $model) { ?> <option value="<?php echo $model['name']?>"><?php echo $model['name']?></option> <?php } ?> </select> <input type="submit" name="submit" value="Submit" /> </form> my config.php: <?php //var_dump($_REQUEST); $name = $_POST['battery']; $pagelink = str_replace(" ","-",$name); $pagelink = strtolower($pagelink); $pagelink = $pagelink.".html"; header ('Location: http://localhost/carrotcycles/test-category/'$pagelink); ?>
