Hi all.
I have a PHP form for entering data on-line into a mySQL
table..
Because of the intended search facility, I require one field in the form
to be completed with exact and precise item names and spelling.
In testing, I had achieved this with look-up tables.
Ideally I would like the selected item from one of five drop-down lists
to autopopulate the form text field when selected.
Alternatively at least the option of copy and paste.
Copy and paste - for some reason will not work.
Autofill worked fine on a test form with no database connection
and in standard HTML and javascript, however, once the PHP
is added to the page neither method works.
Could anyone please point me in the direction of how to get the
autofill to work??

Here is one of the pages in question:
(This is dummied and should not allow realtime data-entry - hopefully)
