Re: [anup123] How to get a drop down from database into signup form

Try this:

Code:
<select name="dgraph_profession"> 
    <option value="IT">IT</option> 
    <option value="public service">Public Service</option> 
    <option value="whatever">Whatever...</option> 
</select>

Any suggestions or is it that every time a new option is added to the dgraph_profession, the pages will have to be updated manually.

For the most part, yeah, you will have to update the list manually. Althoug, I'm sure you can biuld a routine that pulls enum info from the column and builds a select. You can use the output of that in a template var.
