Hi!
I wondered if someone could help me out.
I have a combo with a couple of options that I want to insert into standard text-fields on a form. Its a kind off "load"-function Im looking for.

When I change my dropdown(name) to show "config 1", I want several "text"-fields(name, setup etc) to be filled with information from a database. The database-connection I think I can take care off, but not the connection between the dropdown and text-fields. If it can be solved, I wish to have it so that the moment I release the mousebutton the selected "config" shows in my fields. It works with a button too, but I already have a form on the page.

I know that there is java-scripts that can do things like that put I want it in php :)

Thanks in advance!!

hi Hylsan,
Try with this code, i think this will help you.
read the database field from the database separated by comma(,)
and write inside combo value, here i have put 1field1,1field2
hope you will get right answer from this.

<script language="javascript">
<!--//
function loadpick()
{
    if(document.getElementById("cmbname").selectedInde x==0){
    document.getElementById("cmbname").selectedIndex=1
    }
    var where_is_mytool=document.getElementById("cmbname") .value;
    var mytool_array=where_is_mytool.split(",");
    document.form1.txtname.value=mytool_array[0]
    document.form1.txtsetup.value=mytool_array[1]
}
//-->
</script>
<form name="form1" method="post">
<select name="cmbname" id="cmbname" onchange="javascript:loadpick()">
 <option value=>select</option>
 <option value="1field1,1field2">config 1</option>
 <option value="2field1,2field2">config 2</option>
 <option value="3field1,3field2">config 3</option>
</select>

Name: <input name="txtname" type="text" size="25" value="XXXXX">
Setup: <input name="txtsetup" type="text" size="25" value="YYYYY">
</form>

I was hoping for a non-java soulution but, ok...it kinda worked.

Still open for sugestions regarding doing this in php tho.

thanks
