Hello,

 

I've some problem with my dropdown list.

 

My pulldown list look like this:

 

Austria

Belgium

Denmark

Germany

----------

Austria

Belgium

Denmark

Germany

----------

Austria

Belgium

Denmark

Germany

----------

Austria

Belgium

Denmark

Germany

----------

 

 

and so on.

 

Do you know what I maybe can do that the list look like(without repeat):

 

Austria

Belgium

Denmark

Germany

----------

 

Thanks you so much. greets!

 

 

 

 

Thank you very much for your answer!

 

Now it looks like:

 

Please select:

Austria

Belgium

Denmark

Germany

----------

 

But "-------" is pre selectet instead of: "Please select:"

 

I could solve the problem by using the preselection by browser but because the preselection for AOL users from Germany would be USA, I can't use this.

 

Do you know what I maybe can do that "Please select" will be preselected on first place instead of ---------?

 

Thank you very much for your help!

Hey,

 

I solved the problem.

 

You should add the } at the end, then it works fine. ;-)

 

 

So it look like this:

 

while ($countries_values = tep_db_fetch_array($countries)) {

$cid=$countries_values['countries_id'];

if ($cid==14 || $cid==73 || $cid==81 ||$cid==204 ||$cid==222 ){

// these country codes are not added to the alfabetical list

} else {

// add normally

$countries_array[] = array('countries_id' => $countries_values['countries_id'],

'countries_name' => $countries_values['countries_name']);

}

}

// add the items at the top of the list, end with a separator

array_unshift($countries_array,

array('countries_id' => 14, 'countries_name' => "Austria"),

array('countries_id' => 73, 'countries_name' => "France"),

array('countries_id' => 81, 'countries_name' => "Germany"),

array('countries_id' => 204, 'countries_name' => "Switzerland"),

array('countries_id' => 222, 'countries_name' => "United Kingdom"),

array('countries_id' => 9999, 'countries_name' => "--------------")

 

);

}

return $countries_array;

 

}

 

 

 

Thank you, for work!

 

greets!
