HTML Default Option in Select Using PHP Is Not Working -


i'm bug-proofing form allows data editing book entries in database. working except drop-down box. drop-down box automatically populates every unique entry in specific field in database table, , part works perfectly. however, when people click edit book fields populated books information, , wanted drop-down box default correct value book. solution check each value populates drop-down box against actual book's value field , if match, make "selected" value.

it not working. box still populating fine, not defaulting. here code drop-down box.

<span style="margin-left:10px;">  publication type:   <select name="publicationtype" >   <option value=""></option>   <option value="">-------------------------</option>   <?php     $lpub = '';    if(array_key_exists('publicationtype',$_request)) $lpub = $_request['publicationtype'];     $lpubarr = $datasetmanager->getpublicationtype();     foreach($lpubarr $pubstr){     if($pubstr == $bookarr['publicationtype']){      echo '<option '.($lpub==$pubstr?'selected="selected"':'').'>'.$pubstr.'</option>'."\n";     }     else{      echo '<option '.($lpub==$pubstr?'':'').'>'.$pubstr.'</option>'."\n";     }    }    ?>  </select> </span>

i can provide variables if needed. don't see i'm doing wrong, maybe able catch obvious mistake.

thank you, kai

not sure try this:

<?php     $lpub = '';    if( array_key_exists('publicationtype',$_request) )         $lpub = $_request['publicationtype'];    $lpubarr = $datasetmanager->getpublicationtype();    foreach($lpubarr $pubstr){      echo '<option '.($lpub==$pubstr?'selected="selected"':'').'>'.$pubstr.'</option>'."\n";    }

i removed condition:

f($pubstr == $bookarr['publicationtype'])

since didn't $bookarr['publicationtype'] used for, perhaps left there mistake
