Generating a URL based on two drop down box selections.

Hi All,

Quick query for a PHP pro i think.

I have a javascript function that will load a CSV file in to a grid:

[CODE]function load(url){
table.setURL(url);
table.request();
}

<button onClick=”load(‘http://URLTONEWFILE.CSV’)”>Load New File</button>
[/CODE]

This works perfectly, however I need to take it a step further to load CSV files, based on user choices from two drop down boxes. Something like this:

[CODE]
<form name=”myform””>
<select name=”mycolour”>
<option value=”red”>RED</option>
<option value=”yellow”>YELLOW</option>
<option value=”blue>BLUE</option>
</select>
<select name=”myshape”>
<option value=”square”>SQUARE</option>
<option value=”circle”>CIRCLE</option>
<option value=”triangle”>TRIANGLE</option>
</select>
<button onClick=”load(‘http://mysite.com/csv/mycolour_myshape.csv’)”>Load New File</button>
</form>[/CODE]

So the bit i need assistance with is the php code required to generate the onClick URL in this format:

[QUOTE]

‘http://www.mysite.com/folder/‘ + ‘mycolour variable’ + ‘_’ + ‘myshape variable’ + ‘.csv’

[/QUOTE]

Any ideas?

Many thanks for your help.
