Help with echo. Yes, I said "echo".

[rockyracoon]

echo "
<form action=$PHP_SELF method=post>
<input type=text name=wholesale size=10 value=''>
<a href='$PHP_SELF?addit=1'>ADD ME!!!</a>
</form>
";

if($addit)
{
echo "<option>$wholesale</option>";
}

//am I crazy? This just doesent seem to work!

[Admin]

are you putting all that inside <?php ?> ?

[rockyracoon]

Yes I am. I think its because the variables arent set with an href only a submit button. what is the best way to call using submit???

echo "
<form action=$PHP_SELF method=post>
<input type=text name=wholesale size=10 value=''>
<input type=submit name='addem' value='Add'>
";


if($addem)
{
echo "<option>$wholesale</option>";
}

echo "
</form>
";

/// hmmm that doesent work either.

here is the exact file i uploaded.

<?

echo "
<form action=$PHP_SELF method=post>
<input type=text name=wholesale size=10 value=''>
<input type=submit name='addem' value='Add'>
";


if($addem)
{
echo "<option>$wholesale</option>";
}

echo "
</form>
";


?>

it seems to be working fine on my machine.. what version of PHP are you running?

[redhead]

Then one must ask, why isn't the <option></option> located within a <select></select>, since <option> is only usable in a <select> part of a <form>
