Hi, I have a snippet as in the following: <ul> <li>Select the type of your starting point of interest:<br/> <div id="start_menu"><form action="" name="form1" method="post"> <span><input type="radio" value="Apartment" name="start" onclick="alert(document.form1.start)"/> Apartment </span> </form></div></li> </ul>If I tried to put this at the top of a file where I save as PHP with other PHP execution statements, looks like the form does not do anything, and yet when I save the page as in HTML with out the other PHP execution, it works. I am trying to create a page where I have dynamic drop down menu lists so users can egenerate dynamic content based on their preference. Is it possible that I can save the entire file as a PHP and still keep the functionality, including generating dynamic menus, writing the proper entries to the database and printing out the proper output?

Thanks for your help.

Alice:

I'm not sure as to what it is that you are asking, but php runs on the server and is done by time anyone looks at a select control.

If you want a dynamic select, then there are two basic types: 1) dynamically generated on the server based upon what the user indicted via a previous submit; 2) dynamically generated on the client-side based upon what the user indicted via a javascript trigger.

Now, please describe which type you want?

Cheers,

tedd
