I have this small problem with my PHP code, there is this website using a dropbox, and I want to show one of these values. file_get_contents on the link where it is located, and now i need to select the dropbox. Once this is done, there are like 400-500 options, and I want to select the value you typed in a textbox. Could you guys help me started? If you are wondering, my school website has our lesson shedules on their website in the dropbox, but i dont want to search for names every time, so when i type my name in the textbox, it needs to select it in the form, thanks alot!
