Creating a pulldownn value - how to integrate into defined value. 2

Good day,
Below is an excerpt from a PHP file that is displayed in an HTML page:

$form_sent = false;
$value_email_customer = "";
$value_email_sender = "";

Our goal is to have a pull down list for value_email_sender eg.:

Mr Brown
Mrs Jones
Miss Smith

Can anyone please help me with the syntax?

Best regards

use an html select box. but I fear you are on the wrong site.

Not sure I understand the question, though.

A <select> tag will do what you want for the pull down, but I'm to sure what that has to do with your static variables there?

Thank you both very much; I found the correct location:

<td><b><span style="<?php if($value_email_sender=="") echo $style_error;?>">E-Mail-Adresse des Absenders:</span></b></td>
<td></td>
<td><select><option value="smith@somedomain.com">Miss Smith</option><option value="jones@somedomain.com">Mrs Jones</option></select></td>

Could either of you please help me get the previous pull down values in to the following:


<input type="text" name="email_sender" size="60" value="<?php echo $value_email_sender;?>"></input>

 

[vacunita]

<select name="value_email_sender">
...
</select>

$value_email_sender=$_POST['value_email_sender'];

Assuming of course your form is using the POST method.
