hello,


i want to create a form containing :

1. drop down list of countries (that i managed to create)
2. action on selection (redirect to a link on country selection)
3. post the selected option into a text box below and remeber (if possible)

The remeber part is optional .

I want a form where user will select country , based on the selection to be redirected to a link and message display , you selected : [textarea]Option[/textarea]

can it be done?

use PHP and the $_POST['NAME OF DROPDOWN HERE'] for the remember but rest is just html;

<form action="page url" method="post">
    <select name="countrybox">
       <option value="Country name">Country Name</option>
    </select>
    <input type="submit" value="submit form" />
</form>

make a new file called 'action.php' or what you want to call it ending with .php and have this as the code in it;

PHP Code:

<?php 
$country = $_POST['country'];
?>
<input type="text" value="<?php echo $country; ?>" />

Make sure that your using a webhost with PHP enabled (not a file on your computer) else this wont work.
