Hello all, could anyone tell me why this code doesn't post the selected option on my screen? Thank you in advance!
Look at the end-tag of </form> it is way to high. Put it under the </select> and you will be happy ;)
<?php
if (isset($_POST['submit'])){
$myvalue=$_POST['sub1'];
echo $myvalue;
}
?>

You need to include the select elements in your form by moving the </form>:
<form action='test322.php' method='POST'>
<select id='sub1' name='sub1'>
<option value="fsd1">dssdds1</option>
<option value="fsdff2">dssfddds2</option>
<option value="fsdff3">dssfddds3</option>
</select>
<input type='submit' name='submit' value='submit'>
</form>//add this tag
and you need to check for POST value like so:
if (!empty($_POST)){
{
$myvalue=$_POST['sub1'];
echo $myvalue;
}
The select element is not the part of you form.
Move the closing tag of form i.e. </form> after </select>
There’s some mistakes in your code:
1) All data that you need to send in your code needs to be between tags. So, your select isn’t.
2) To get your POST data, just do with $_POST.
<?php
if ($_POST){
$myvalue = $_POST['sub1'];
echo $myvalue;
}
?>

<option value="fsdff2">dssfddds2</option>
<option value="fsdff3">dssfddds3</option>
</select>
</form>

Hope it helps.
Your select was not part of your form. Try this:
<?php
if (isset($_POST['submit'])){
$myvalue=$_POST['sub1'];
echo $myvalue;
}
?>
