I want a registration page on my website where the user clicks on the appropriate item from a dropdown menu. I’ve simplified things so as to isolate the one operation I can’t do – I mean that the $hour variable, the username, the password, I can record all those in a record set – but I can’t record the user’s answer to the question “In what month were you born?” I can’t do so because, in answer to this question, the user is just going to click on the appropriate month from a dropdown list – Great! But then what variable am I going to insert into the ‘splut’ table on the ‘debra’ database? I know that it’s easy for you geeks but very hard for me, an old-timer newbie! Any help will be greatly appreciated
Here's my code:
<?php
session_start();
$hour=time();
?>

<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf8" />

<?
mysql_connect("localhost","root","1234");
mysql_db_query("debra","SET NAMES utf8");
mysql_query("insert INTO splut (start_time , user , passwd) VALUES (NOW() , '$user', '$pw')") or die(mysql_error());
if(mysql_query($sql)){
echo "OK";
}else{
echo "";
}
?>
<body>
<form>
Username:
<input type = "text" name="user" method="post" />
<br /><br />
Password:
<input type = "password" name="pw" method="post" />
<br /><br />
<input type = "submit" name="submit" value="SUBMIT" />
<p>
<label>In what month were you born?: </label>
<select name="month" style="width: 75px;">
<option value='' selected>Month</option>
