  In pnadmin.php:
  
  

  Quote

  
  $pnRender->caching = false;
  
  $years = array();
  
  $today = getdate();
  $thisYear = $today['year']+1;
  $intStartYear=1900;
  while ($thisYear >= $intStartYear){
  $years[] = $intStartYear;
  ++$intStartYear;
  }
  
  return $pnRender->fetch('roqFacilities_admin_new.htm');
  

  
  
  in roqFacilities_admin_new.htm:
  
  

  Quote

  <select name="year">
  <option selected="selected">(choose year)</option>
  
  
  <option value=""></option></select>

  The syntax between PHP and pnRender is a bit different, try:
  
  

  Quote

  <select name="year">
  <option selected="selected">(choose year)</option>
  
  
  <option value=""></option>
  
  
  </select>

  
  
  or just:
  
  

  Quote

  <select name="year">
  <option selected="selected">(choose year)</option>
  
  
  <option value=""></option></select>

  try:
  
  

  Quote

  <select name="year">
  <option selected="selected">(choose year)</option>
  
  <option></option>
  
  </select>

  
  
  Does the calling function use this:
  
  

  Quote

  $pnRender =& new pnRender('modname');
  ...
  $pnRender->assign('year', $years);
  ...
  return $pnRender->fetch('modname_admin_funcname.htm');

  
  ?
  
  You might try a static call too, like "<option></option>", to see if the array is being passed. Also check your HTML output to see if any extraneous output is there.

  that was it!
  
  

  Code

  $pnRender->assign('year', $years);

  
  
  didn't have that line.
  
  so is "year" in admin.php equal to "$year[]" in the .htm file
  
  also what is the
  
  

  Code

  <!--[section]-->

  
  
  all about? I added it cause it was in the tutorial, but do not know what it is or references.

  <option value="..."> only needs to be defined if it is different than the text between the option tags. You can specify as you did above, if necessary.

  is just a for loop... in pseudo-code: for mysec = 0 to size($year)
  
  

  Quote

  
  
  closes the loop.
  
  as you've likely figured out
  
  

  Quote

  $pnRender->assign(pnRender_var, php_var);

  
  
  passes the var from PHP to pnRender.
  
  I'm uncertain on the benefits of using "pnvarprephtmldisplay" or "strip", but experimentation should clear that up... or I suppose we could actually read the docs :)</option>
