Non mi funziona questa parte:
Codice PHP:
//table tabella1    $sql ="SELECT id FROM tabella2 where cyl='$cyl'";    $r= mysql_query($sql);    $v= mysql_fetch_array($r);    echo "<div id=styled-select> <select name='cyl'>";     echo "<option value = ".$v['id']." >$cyl</option>";        $sqlquery ="SELECT id,cyl FROM tabella1";    $result = mysql_query($sqlquery);        if (!$sqlquery) {           exit ('<p> Errore mentre recuperavo i dati' . mysql_error() . '</p>');                }                     while ($value= mysql_fetch_array($result))     {     echo "<option value = ".$value['id'].">".$value['cyl']."</option>";    }echo "</select> </div>";                ?> </td>      </tr>           </td>        <td>Operating pressure: </td>        <td><?php     $sql ="SELECT id FROM tabella2 where operating_pressure='$operating_pressure'";    $rmysql_query($sql);    $vmysql_fetch_array($r);    echo "<div id=styled-select><select name='operating_pressure'>";     echo "<option value = ".$v['id']." >$operating_pressure</option>";        $sqlquery ="SELECT id,operating_pressure FROM tabella2";    $result mysql_query($sqlquery);    if (!$sqlquery) {           exit ('<p> Errore mentre recuperavo i dati' mysql_error() . '</p>');                }     while ($valuemysql_fetch_array($result))     {     echo "<option value = ".$value['id'].">".$value['operating_pressure']."</option>";   }echo "</select> </div>";        ?></td>        </tr>
in particolare queste due query:

Codice PHP:
$sql ="SELECT id FROM tabella2 where cyl='$cyl'";
$sql ="SELECT id FROM tabella2 where operating_pressure='$operating_pressure'"
non mi trova i valori di $cyl e $operating_pressure. Ho provato a stampare i valori di queste variabili e sono giusti. Quando faccio questo confronto cyl='$cyl'" non trova il record, la stessa cosa succede per operating_pressure='$operating_pressure'.

Grazie mille a tutti
