having table data displayed on the form

[paxil]

i am looking for help on how i can have data called from a table in the database and have the extracted data as a value in a form.

usually when not using website baker , a statement like the following ends up working well.

<td style="width: 635px;"><input maxlength="5" size="6" name="refnum" readonly="readonly"
            value='<?php echo $record['fault_refnum']; ?>'><br>

I tried the same in website baker but it doesnt work. can someone help me out on how to use extracted data from a table and have it displayed in the html form field.

Cheers
Pax

Hello,

so you try to read datas from a non WB table right?

If this is the case basically you need first to connect to this database, then read the content, close this connection and go back to WB database.

How this can be solved is written here in the forum in several threads. So try a search in the forum.
