Complete NOOB - Needs Dynamic Form Help

looking for allot -- yes -- but i can give back :)

[iggy99]

i am a complete NOOB to the thoughts of adding more 'robustness' to my web site, to help me capture more local sales

....................

i have a table in DB called local_destinations

and there are 9 fields

....................

goal is to be able to place this data into a dynamic form that will load for submission to cart, based on select box pick with all of these details in db for that location

....................

i have searched the www - and have come back to the site that has so much to offer!

....................

is there any chance some one can help, walk me thur this?

many thanks

Iggy

hi dave

we have built our own over the years...

sorry should have mentioned this -- currently use static address entry page...

yes php mysql

[daveVk]

Are there are a large number of destinations ? If not encoding entire table into page may be an option.

I assume we are talking about a form that expands as destinations are added ?

[iggy99]

there are 100's of destinations...

the form need not expand.. only show proper address based on page that is submitting

[daveVk]

What do you consider the best way for destination selection ?

Are there reasonable categories to divide them into manageable size selection lists.

The alternative is some form of text search, harder for users ?
