Hi, I'm trying for awhile to code up a MYSQLi dropdown from a database, select a field(url, formatted as "
http://www.thisurl.com) and arrive at that destination. I've tried several forums re. compatability (connection/query/output etc..Problem is I blow up at the first query (see screen shot). It's like my PHP isn't working. If someone will advise of the PHP issue maybe I can work out the app code. Any volunteers? Thanks!
