Hi all,
I'm trying to do correlation for the selected item in a drop down list (To get the value, such as 000, 1, X). But I'm not sure how to do this. Can you give me some suggestions?
The following is the server response for this drop down list.
As each value is different from others, I cannot use the array function of the method web_reg_save_param_ex. I only can extract the string "<option value="">Select One</option><option value= ... retired worker etc)</option>" now.
I'm thinking to split the long string into short one by separator '</option>' and save the short strings into an array. Then I can scan the array using key word 'selected' (if statement). for example, if it is found in 'OB' one, then set value '000' into a temp parameter. After that, I can use the value in other place.
please correct me if I am wrong.
Appreciate if anyone can help to code for this as I'm poor in C. :P
Many thanks!
