Mich that was a typo sorry about that... it should be:
ColorName ColorID
The output looks just like a drop down box with all the colours listed :)
which is from this function / query:
function showColor($item_id)
{
$query="select ref_colours.* from item_color ,ref_colours where
ref_colours.ColorID=item_color.color_id and item_color.item_id=$item_id";
$rs=mysql_query($query);
if(!$rs)
{
echo "Error while exeuting the query";
}
else
{
while($row=mysql_fetch_array($rs))
{
$color_id=$row['ColorID'];
$cName=$row['ColorName'];
echo "<option value=\"$color_id\">$cName</option>";
}
}
}
I think what Rudy is trying to suggest is create another query to input the
actual colour name into the table instead of the colourID but I thought I had
already done this and that all I need to do was input colorName
Clearly there is another query needed but this has thrown me.... actually it's
starting to make sense the more my head throbs :) I'll just pop another couple
of codine
