Well, I have been working with HTML since 1995. No I am not an expert.
I have been in computers since 1979 and I gained some fame for the
first logged question about the year 2000 problem (IBM Knowledge base
summer 1980). So I have a computer/logical intelligence and a good-
enough-to-get-things-working-knowledge on many things. In five years
of php and mysql I have NEVER lost a user entered record. This is with
about 1,5 million keyed in records a year on the seven sites I work
with. Most of work is free in my spare time volentry work for sports
organisations.

In this actual case I started with a drop down menu. But the users
found it difficult to understad why they could not click on the
<tr><td> to chose the trip they wanted. Ie one click rather than
opening and selecting from a dropdown menu and then clicking OK.

The <tr><td> are needed for details to explain trip itinery.

So I went with this (Example with 2 forms).

<tr><td>Trip 1 name and details</td>
<td width="150" valign="middle" class="barstyle">
<FORM action="boksteg2.php" method="post" name="steg110" id="steg110"
> <input name="resmalval111" type="hidden" value="110">
<input type="Submit" value = "Boka NU">
</FORM>
</td></tr>

<tr><td>Trip 2 name and details</td>
<td width="150" valign="middle" class="barstyle">
<FORM action="boksteg2.php" method="post" name="steg111" id="steg111"
> <input name="resmalval111" type="hidden" value="111">
<input type="Submit" value = "Boka NU">
</FORM>
</td></tr>

I only want one form Entered. I want it as a one-click operation.

If the first form is Submitted it sends 110 to the next page
If the second form is Submitted it sends 111 to the next page

Bascially I need is x number of submit buttons that send x number of
unique values to the next page. My method works.

Now when on the next page it needs to do something with the value it
received. My method necessitates a long-winded code that I thought I
could simplify by dynamicly creating it with php and "for each"

If you can point me to an easier way then ok, but I do have it working
now, even if I am not happy with the code.... as its long winded.
