Hello! How to make so that in the combobox the list was filled with values ​​from the table in the MySQL database?

  • Long time ago I didn’t make anything out. I will clarify before answering. Is a select box? - Vitaly Kustov

$db = new PDO($connectionString, $user, $pass); $res = $db->query(“SELECT id, name FROM table”); echo "<select name='var'>"; while ($obj = $res->fetch(PDO::FETCH_OBJ)) { // $obj - экземпляр объекта stdClass, имена столбцов - свойства объекта echo "<option value='{$obj->id}'>{$obj->name}</option>" } echo "</select>";

This is how you can make a dropdownlist. (combobox?)

For over a year I have been watching the forums, this resource and many more than. And EVERYWHERE specialists advise beginners (setting an example, so to speak) to use this (and not only this) antiquity. And they (beginners) think that they have understood and the end is over.

    Mixed SQL, HTML. There is simply no time for an explanation that flies should be separate - cutlets separately. It remains only to hope that a person is smart enough not just to take and copy. I just pointed out the principle. Pure abstraction - Vitaly Kustov
