Forms - List Boxes (by John Kauffman & Charles Carroll)

The listbox object is very popular since it makes data entry easy. They just pull down a list.

   filename=/learn/test/FormListBox.asp

<Test Script Below>


<html><head>
<TITLE>FormListBox.asp</TITLE>
</head><body bgcolor="#FFFFFF">
<form action="FormListBoxRespond.asp" method="post">
<SELECT NAME="state">
    <OPTION SELECTED VALUE="md">Maryland</OPTION>
    <OPTION value="dc">District of Columbia</OPTION>
    <OPTION value="va">Virginia</OPTION>
    <OPTION value="whoknows">Somewhere Else!</OPTION>
</SELECT>
<input type=submit value="Choose State">
</form>
</body></html>

The responder looks like this:

   filename=/learn/test/FormListBoxrespond.asp

<Test Script Below>


<html><head>
<TITLE>formlistboxrespond.asp</TITLE>
</head><body bgcolor="#FFFFFF">
<%mystate = request.form("state")
Select Case ucase(mystate)
case "DC"
    response.write "DC meeting on 15th"
case "MD"
    response.write "MD meeting on 20th"
case else
    response.write "No meetings for you to attend!"
End Select%>
</body>

There are many worthy charities!!. But perhaps help starving children in Africa or South America AND help Charles too. a $5 tip buys him lunch at McDonalds, a $20 tip buys his kid Hitoshi a new computer game, a $39 tip buys his daughter Michiko a few nice outfits. See our donor list.
