Hi
i have a form with more than one selection

i want to store what the user select on each category and then store it to a database in order to retrieve it back

for example i have the following selection options:
<form action="one.php" method="get">
<select name="q1">
<option value="1">1</option>
<option value="2">2</option>
<option value="3">3</option>
<option value="4">4</option>
</select><br>

<select name="q2">
<option value="car">car</option>
<option value="cat">cat</option>
<option value="bus">bus</option>
</select>
<input type="submit">
</form>


I know how to connect to database
but i want the code that will store the selection
and how i can retrieve it back to a form

thanks

Hi,

There are a number of tutorials which can guide you through them, step-by-step. One of the most notable is tizag.com.

I have picked out a couple of pages which are specific to your needs:

How to get the data from the form to the server
The difference between POST and GET
How to insert the data into the database
How to retrieve the data from the database

The previous response is appropriate. As an alternative to propose another resource that specializes in php form - http://phpforms.net/php-forms.html
