You can do it with the help of Javascript and making three different forms. There is a style property of the <TR> Tag that u can use to hide the forms.

style="display:none"

hides the tr from showing on the form

and

style="display:"

shows the tr on the form.


This can also be handeled with javascript.
On the click of the radio button u can change the display of the <tr> tag.

Hope u got it. If u need me further i am here.

Try something like this

First create the form to select the active form of the users choice.

<form method="POST" action="linktoself.php" name="formselector">
<select size="1" name="formselector" onchange=citystat.submit()>
<option value="form1_on">form1</option>
<option value="form2_on">form2</option>
<option value="form3_on">form3</option>
</select>
</form>

Then somewhere before the other forms have an if clause like
if ($formselector=="form1_on")
{
echo "Form1 html";
}
if ($formselector=="form2_on")
{
echo "Form2 html";
}

and so on to 3.

Not the exact answer, but the logic is there I think.

Not sure what you mean there, but the input goes between the form tags

I think the problem is here...it looks like you created 3 pages for 3 forms, a,b, and c. You should just have all of the forms on one page, and then echo the right one when onClick value tells it which one..

using the 3 same input types... don't link to a.php, b.php, c.php, but to samepage.php?value=showforma,b, or c.

You'll hack it out. It's kind of hard to know exactly what you mean and exactly what I mean.
