How to combine <a href> tag and <option> tag in html

PHP
1

can anyone give me idea how to execute this?
Thanks.

What are you trying to do? A jump menu?

yup but the value of the option is on the table…
is this applicable using while…for the option value?

4

example:

i have a table for a user.

the value that in the user is called using a
while loop.


$user=mssql_query("Select * from tblUser");
echo "<select>";
while($row=mssql_fetch_assoc($user)){
echo "<option value='manage.php'>$row['username']</option>";
}echo "</select>";

how can i incorporate it. i tried it but it is not working.

Questions on the code you just posted:


$user=mssql_query("Select * from tblUser");

echo "<select>":	// <- colon should be semi-colon

while( $row = mssql_fetch_assoc($user) ) {
	echo "<option value='manage.php'>$row['username']</option>";

}</select>  // Shouldn't this be echo "</select>;

yup i edit it…same error…
is there any way.

Is this what you are trying to do?
Note: This is a very quick guess


<?php

	if( isset($_POST['userEdit']) ) {
		header('Location: '.$_POST['userEdit']);
	}

?>
<!DOCTYPE html>
	<head>
		<meta charset="UTF-8">
		<title></title>
	</head>
	<body>
	<?php

		if(	isset($_GET['user']) ) {
			echo 'Editing '.ucfirst($_GET['user']).'\\'s information';
		}

	?>

	<form method="post" action="test.php">
	<?php
		$array = array(
			'Adam',
			'Barbara',
			'Catherine',
			'Douglas'
		);
		echo '<select name="userEdit">';
		foreach( $array as $user ) {
			echo '<option value="test.php?user='.strtolower($user).'">'.$user.'</option>';
		}
		echo '</select>';
	?>
	<input type="submit" value="Submit">
	</form>
	</body>
</html>
