You can simplify your coding too... take notice of using single quotes
instead of escaped double quotes... help keep the confusion down
(single quotes are perfectly fine in HTML):
<?
error_reporting(E_ALL);
//connect to database
require('connect.php');
// drop down menu to choose status filter returns $filter containing filter
data for mysql query
$query = "SELECT * from securitystatus ORDER by status_id";
$result = mysql_query($query);
$num = mysql_num_rows($result);
$i=0;
echo "<form name='form_status' method=post>
Filter by:
<select name='select_form'
onChange='JavaScript:document.form_status.submit()'>
<option></option>";
// list names
while ($i < $num) {
$statusname = mysql_result($result, $i, 'statusname');
$statusnumber = mysql_result($result, $i, 'status_id');
echo "<option value = '$statusnumber'>$statusname</option>";
$i++;
}
echo "</select>";
// creates filter for mysql query to only view necessary
$filter = NULL;
if ( isset($_POST['select_form']) ) {
$filter = $_POST['select_form'];
$filter = "WHERE status = '$filter'";
}
