Drop-down return MYSQL results
#1

[eluser]Unknown[/eluser]
Good morning,

I am new to Code Ignitor and rather new to PHP as well so I appreciate your assistance to begin with.

I have a drown-down menu (hard coded with options) that stores the results in a table. My question is if I go back to edit those results they of course default back to the hard coded order. How do I make the drop-down display the option that was originally selected and stored in the DB?


<select name="client_type">
<option name="client_type" value="Retail">Retail</option>
<option name="client_type" value="Ad Speciality">Ad Speciality</option>
<option name="client_type" value="Combination">Combination</option>
</select>

Look at the form helper, specifically the form_dropdown() function.
