I am assuming that $conn is created somewhere above ok

first thing I would think of is how you access $row1

1. prolly you meant $row1["kode_fak"]
    you should quote your keyname, otherwise php thinks its something
    special, not a variable, not a string

2. I think its more obvious for compiler if you do it more explicitly:

    echo "<option value='".$row1["kode_fak"].".>".$row1["mana_fak"].
        "</option>\n";

3. there is pg_fetch_assoc, but since am newbie myself I am not sure
    wether its better to use pg_fetch_array and hope for it to be
    associative, or better use pg_fetch_assoc and be more guaranteed
    about it. anyone bother to comment? is pg_fetch_assoc an old timer
    function and pg_fetch_array is the main to use?

hope this helps, enjoy


/apz,   Condense soup, not books!

apz screwed up:
>    echo "<option value='".$row1["kode_fak"].".>".$row1["mana_fak"].
>        "</option>\n";

it should say:

     echo "<option value='".$row1["kode_fak"]."'>".$row1["mana_fak"].
         "</option>\n";


if you dont see it, I had ".>" while should be "'>"  (to close the html
value string for the option tag). blah, hope this does not deter from
getting this thing for you to work.


enjoy



/apz,   Learn to pause -- or nothing worthwhile can catch up to you.

Or you could just do this to:

echo
"<option value=\"{$row1['kode_fak']}\">{$row1['mana_fak']}</option>\n";

That will work too...
