I am wanting to create an select menu for displaying the order of the item
on a page. I am guessing that I need to get the count of how many items are
in the db and them put them into a select menu.
Your question doesn't really make a great deal of sense. Your SQL could be:
SELECT COUNT(*) FROM your_table WHERE 1
Which will give you a single numeric value back (the number of rows). To
put them into an HTML page:
<select name="mySelect">
<option>Choose...</option>
<option value="1">Foo</option>
</select>
This is a very basic select. You can simply loop through your query
results adding more option tags to add more items to the select.
