[PHP3] Muliple Browser Support From: Fehres, Carl (carl.fehres <email protected>)
Date: 08/05/99

Hey guys,

I'm trying to write an application that will include the ability to add
items to a form list box. I am pulling the form list data from a mysql
database. The form the users are filling out includes several of these list
form boxes. The problem I have is I'd like to give users access to add an
item to the list and have the list update in the main form window without
refreshing the document (and loosing information that has been filled out
already).

I have a basic example of what I'd like to do. If you go to Yahoo Email and
use the attach file feature it will pop up a second browser. You are able
to add attachments to your outbound email with this second browser window.
As soon as you hit attach file in the second window information appears in
the first window reflecting the attached file. The first window is not
refreshed and current data is not lost.

Is there a way to do this with server side scripting (PHP3) or do I need to
pickup a client side scripting language like Javascript to do this.

Thanks in advance for your help.
