Drop down boxe selections to php my admin

[melcox80]

Hi All, I am new herer this is my first post. I have only in the last couple of weeks started using/learning php. I have created an online registration form for our club. In that form I have dropdown boxes. All the other information gets to myphpadmin table correctly. However there is no entry in the table where the dropdown boxes were. I'm not sure if I have the tag wrong or if I have to change the option in the table.

Can anyone help? What have I done wrong? It's urgent as people are registering and I don't know what their class or age is!

use value keyword there after option

for example

<select name="colour">
<option value="Choose one">Choose one</option>
<option value="red">Red</option>
<option value="green">Green</option>
<option value="blue">Blue</option>
</select>
