hi :)
i am creating a webpage. i use a combo box to let user
choose which folder they want.
after they choose, it will be saved into the database.
the next time they load this page, it will retrieve
the data from database and appear at the combo box.
i already done that.
but now the problem is....the data that i retrieve
from the database will same with the options in the
combo box.
so, it will become 2 same options. i am afraid this
will confuse the user. so i want to fix it.
if u dont understand what i mean, try look at the
picture & coding below:
folder: husband
friend
family
boss
husband

this is the code:
<select size="1" name="groupMailbox1">
<option><?php echo $row["groupMailbox1"]; ?></option>
<?php
//Open Directory you want to include
//$base='/home/a/mail';
$handel = opendir($base);
//Get contents of the directory
while (false !== ($file =
readdir($handel))) {
if (is_dir($base . "/" .
$file) && ($file !== ".") && ($file !== "..")) {
list($filename, $ext) =
explode(".", $file);
list($main, $sub, $include) =
explode("/", $PHP_SELF);
echo "<option value=\"$file\""; //Echo
the file name in a combo box
if ($inc==$file) echo "
selected";
echo">$file</option>\n";
echo $file;
}
}
?>
</select><p></p>

how to make it so that the data that we retrieve from
database, if same with the options we have, we only
need to make that option selected?
thanks :)
