drop-down menu stuff

@AdamBrillFeb 14.2003 — #Well, first of all you would have to get the database info into javascript. Lets say that after you do that, all of the database information is in two arrays, partnumber and description. Then, the code would look something like this:

<i>
 </i>&lt;script language=javascript&gt;
 function Update(element,formname)
 {
 x=0;
 ran=false;
 do
 {
 if(partnumber[x]==element.value)
 {
 ran=true;
 break;
 }
 x++;
 } while(partnumber[x])
 if(ran)
 {
 formname.results.value=description[x];
 }
 }
 document.write("&lt;form&gt;");
 document.write("&lt;select onclick='Update(this,this.form);'&gt;");
 document.write("&lt;option value='SELECT'&gt;Please select&lt;/option&gt;");
 x=0;
 do
 {
 document.write("&lt;option value='"+partnumber[x]+"'&gt;"+partnumber[x]+"&lt;/option&gt;");
 x++;
 } while(partnumber[x])
 document.write("&lt;/select&gt;");
 document.write("&lt;input type=text name='results'&gt;");
 document.write("&lt;/form&gt;");
 &lt;/script&gt;

I would suggest that you put something in a <noscript> tag, just in case someone comes to your site that doesn't have javascript enabled...
