    copied!<p>I've got a few select lists on my form which look a bit like this:</p> <pre><code>&lt;option value="400000" &lt;?php if($_GET['MaxPrice'] == "400000") { echo("selected"); } ?&gt;&gt;&amp;pound;400,000&lt;/option&gt; </code></pre> <p>As you can see (above) I've got a bit of PHP in there telling the form to remember it's selection upon submit.</p> <p>Is there a short bit of PHP that would remember every selection without the rather heavy method I'm using above?</p> <p>Thanks in advance.</p> <p>UPDATE:</p> <pre><code>&lt;select name="MaxPrice" id="MaxPrice"&gt; &lt;option value="9999999" selected&gt;Price (Max)&lt;/option&gt; &lt;option value="100000" &lt;?php if($_GET['MaxPrice'] == "100000") { echo("selected"); } ?&gt;&gt;&amp;pound;100,000&lt;/option&gt; &lt;option value="200000" &lt;?php if($_GET['MaxPrice'] == "200000") { echo("selected"); } ?&gt;&gt;&amp;pound;200,000&lt;/option&gt; &lt;option value="300000" &lt;?php if($_GET['MaxPrice'] == "300000") { echo("selected"); } ?&gt;&gt;&amp;pound;300,000&lt;/option&gt; &lt;option value="400000" &lt;?php if($_GET['MaxPrice'] == "400000") { echo("selected"); } ?&gt;&gt;&amp;pound;400,000&lt;/option&gt; &lt;/select&gt; </code></pre> <p>UPDATE 2: Is there a way to implement this technique into some JavaScript?</p> <pre><code>if (BuyRent=='buy') document.SearchForm.MaxPrice.options[9999999]=new Option("Price (Max)","150000000"); document.SearchForm.MaxPrice.options[100000]=new Option("\u00A3100,000","100000"); document.SearchForm.MaxPrice.options[200000]=new Option("\u00A3200,000","200000"); document.SearchForm.MaxPrice.options[300000]=new Option("\u00A3300,000","300000"); document.SearchForm.MaxPrice.options[400000]=new Option("\u00A3400,000","400000"); </code></pre>
