I have this HTML code which displays 3 drop down boxes and a submit button (image attached):
I want to be able to take the 3 inputs and output a known value based on the 3 drop down list selections. Can anyone suggest what functions I should use to process the input from the 3 drop down lists and display a pre-assigned outcome? Thank you, Current code: <html> <body> <form action="/action_page.php"> <select name="Parents"> <option value="1 Parent">1 Parent</option> <option value="2 Parents">2 Parents</option> </select> <select name="Children"> <option value="1 Kids">1 Child</option> <option value="2 Children">2 Children</option> <option value="3 Children">3 Children</option> <option value="4 Children">4 Children</option> </select> <select name="Membership"> <option value="1 Month">1 Month</option> <option value="3 Months">3 Months</option> <option value="12 Months">12 Months</option> </select> <input type="submit"> <script> </script> </form> </body> </html> Attached thumbnail(s) |

HTML has no functions and HTML can't do that such things. You need to use a programming language.

CODE <form action="/action_page.php"> The above hints at a PHP script, how familiar are you with that? Probably you'd need IF/ELSE forks or similar to process the different alternatives. |

Oops.
I move this to the server side scripting forum then. |

Had you already moved it, Christian? I got an error when I tried to and here the topic is.
