PHP下拉列表。 保存数据以表单形式发布到其他页面

Question

I have been searching for an answer to this for the last two days. I am trying to add a list of manufacturers to an existing form in php. This worked out ok and I got it to work somewhat.

Here is the problem when the user makes the selection and submits the form it takes them to another page that shows them a preview of their post. In this preview it show them the manufacturer they selected. But when they finalize the the post it doesn't show using the same code.

I know that their must be a simple way of doing this. I am not great with php but I have put forth a valiant effort to get this done. I am stumped please help.

Here is my code.

HTML:

<select action="select.php" name="manufacturer">
    <option value="Lincoln">Lincoln</option>
    <option value="Example">Example</option>
    </select>

PHP:

<?php
if(isset($_POST['manufactuer']))
echo "Manufacturer: ".$_POST['manufacturer'];
  else {?>

I call to the selection with this.

<?php echo "Manufacturer: ".$_POST['manufacturer']; ?>

How do I show this when the user posts and if the same user posts again or a different user posts to show their selections for those specific posts. posts

Answer 1

您可以将变量从“查看”页面传递到带有隐藏字段的下一页。

<form><input type='hidden' value='<?php echo $_POST['manufacturer']; ?>' name='manufacturer' /></form>

Answer 2

Just set the selected="selected" option in the selected select with php. That makes:

<option value="Lincoln" selected="selected">Lincoln</option>
