I don't know what is wrong with that code.. Suddenly when i move the MYSQL_ASSOC,
it works like a champ.

This is the code after i make the changes..

Quote:

<select name="home_name">
<?php
$strsql = "select * from Player";
$rsTmp = mysql_query($strsql) or die("Query failed");
while($rowTmp = mysql_fetch_array($rsTmp)) {
echo "<option value='$rowTmp[0]'>$rowTmp[0]</option> ";
}
?>
</select>
