Good afternoon Alex,
Please find an example below. I had this code saved in a file named
select.php.
Summary:
This code is for a simple html page with a select box and a submit button.
2. When the user submits the form the form is posted back to the same page.
3. You'll notice that there is a php code segment between the first level
heading and the form. This code first checks to see if the form field that
we are using has a value and then echos the result to the browser.
4. If you are still getting a parse error then you may have some
configuration problem with your php or server.
select.php :
<html>
<head>
<title>Select PHP Example</title>
</head>
<body>
<h1>Select PHP Example</h1>
<?php
if (isset($_POST['lstSelect']))
{
echo "<div>";
echo "The value is: " . $_POST['lstSelect'];
echo "</div>";
}
?>
<form name="frmExample" action="select.php" method="post">
<select name="lstSelect">
<option value="1">Apple</option>
<option value="2">Pear</option>
<option value="3">Orange</option>
</select>
<input type="submit" value="Show Select Value" />
</form>
</body>
</html>
