[PHP3] Help, lost in the mixture of php3 and html..... From: Robert Chalmers (robert <email protected>)

Hi,
I'm good and proper lost in the mixture of html andphp3 syntax now...

It's simple really. I have a list of the Alphabet.

        ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ

At the top of the page basically. Now, if I click on "A" for instance, I
want a listing of all things in the database starting with "A".
The database part is ok. no worries. Jumping ot a location in a page is no
worries, but how do I code the link so that when I click letter A, it takes
that letter to the code to find the A's in the database.

   <a href="display-contents.php3?A"> would I thought have passed the code,
but I want it all on the same page.

            abcdefghi....
            =========
            A....
            A....
            A....

depending on which letter I select... Maybe I should use it in a form? with
a select? hmmm

Thanks anyway for any pointers folks.

Bob
