How can I get the "My Room" stored into a hidden field to submit to my insert into database page out of <option value="19">My Room</option>

<input type="hidden" name="MyRoom" value="19" />

[chrismartz]

That won't have the value of "My Room"...I need something that will get the text from the option box and when the form is submitted i can request.form and get the text from certain option text areas, not the value though! This has to be possible...no?

[buntine]

Wher are you getting the data from for the select box? Just look in the same place and get it again.

[chrismartz]

That data is just a select box that I put hard coded on the page. I need to get the text within the option and store it and then the value is stored for another part. is this possible?

[chrismartz]

any ideas?

[buntine]

Just submit the form.... The value will be passed to the server where you will insert it into the database.

I must be misunderstanding you.

[chrismartz]

never mind....got a idea figured out that works
