Re: [PHP-DB] Converting MySOL query results into form elements. From: Mark C. Farrington (alareth <email protected>)

Thanks for the quick response, but I'm still having a bit of difficulty with
it.

I'll go into a bit more detail:

I have my database and what I need in the dropdown is the results of a query
on the field unit_tag in a table named unit_name.
I see how the code snippet creates the dropdown box but I'm still fuzzy on
how to pass the query results.
