I'm using Dreamweaver's "Update Record" form wizard to create a record
update page. Most of the fields are "text", one is "file" and I want one of
them to be a "menu". The "menu" field should be populated with the fields
of another table.

Here's the problem... If I leave all of the fields as text input fields,
the form works fine. But, as soon as I change the "manufacturers" field to
a drop-down menu populated with entries from another table, I get the
following error when accessing the page...

Parse error: parse error, expecting `T_STRING' or `T_VARIABLE' or
`T_NUM_STRING' in
/home/s/k/user992816/html/RobesonWeb/admin/adminEditSpecials.php on line
106

line 106 reads...

<option value="<?php echo $row_rs_RobesonWebManufacturer['manufacturer']?>"
<?php if (!(strcmp($row_rs_RobesonWebManufacturer['manufacturer'],
"$row_rs_RobesonWebSpecials[\'manufacturer\']"))) {echo "SELECTED";}
?>><?php echo $row_rs_RobesonWebManufacturer['manufacturer']?></option>

Needless to say, this line is embedded in this Php code to create the
drop-down menu...

<select name="manufacturer">
<?php 
     do {  
     ?>
          <option value="<?php echo
$row_rs_RobesonWebManufacturer['manufacturer']?>" <?php if
(!(strcmp($row_rs_RobesonWebManufacturer['manufacturer'],
"$row_rs_RobesonWebSpecials[\'manufacturer\']"))) {echo "SELECTED";}
?>><?php echo $row_rs_RobesonWebManufacturer['manufacturer']?></option>
     <?php
           } while ($row_rs_RobesonWebManufacturer = mysql_fetch_assoc
$rs_RobesonWebManufacturer));
?>
</select>

What's up? These "drop-downs from another table" work fine in "Add" forms.
They just seem to crap out in "Update" forms. Attached is the entire page
for consulting.

Thanx,
