Populate select drop down from a database table

Question

I have a table (\"venues\") that stores all the possible venues a volunteer can work, each volunteer is assigned to work one venue each.

I want to create a select dr

Answer 1

$query = "SELECT volunteers_2009.id, volunteers_2009.comments, volunteers_2009.choice1, volunteers_2009.choice2, volunteers_2009.choice3, volunteers_2009.lname, volunteers_2009.fname, volunteers_2009.venue_id, venues.venue_name FROM volunteers_2009 AS volunteers_2009 LEFT OUTER JOIN venues ON (volunteers_2009.venue_id = venues.id) ORDER by $order $sort";

$res = mysql_query($query);
echo "";
while (($row = mysql_fetch_row($res)) != null)
{
    echo "{$row['venue_name']}";
}
echo "";
