Hi all,

Am doing the database end of my system and am in the process of adding rows to the tables. For a specific part in the table guest I would like to include a drop down menu under gender where the user can select M or F without typing this manually. Does anyone no if and how this can be achieved

thanks Mark

I can't tell if you're asking about the markup (HTML) or if you are seeking suggestions on how you should create the particular (db table) column.

I won't assume it's the markup-thingy...

I suppose you could use ENUM type but if this is something I was doing, I would create the column as a TINYINT(1), name the column as `female` and the only possible values would be 1 or 0; in other words, true or false.

either of them not sure would be best, was thinking about having a drop down list of countries to select from too, would this ned to be done using php?
