Dropdown in a form

[eluser]pickupman[/eluser]
Try this:

Code:

$dropdown = array('FALSE' => 'Please Select'); //Create array

foreach($result as $row){
  $dropdown[$row->courseid] = $row->courseid; //Add item to array
}

echo form_dropdown('select',$dropdown); //Print drop down

Make sure that the variable $result is the result object and not a query object. (ie. Somewhere you have passed $result = $some_query->result(); Otherwise, it won't work. Please use the <code> button when posting code into the forums. It will make it easier for people to copy and pasted your code.
