I have a php file that is not pulling my dropdown information in my <form>. I've been pulling my hair out over this. Any help would be much appreciated. Below are my files.
html:
<form name="contactform" method="post" action="send_form_email.php">
<table width="450px">
<tr>
<td valign="top">
<label for="first_name">First Name *</label>
</td>
<td valign="top">
<input type="text" name="first_name" maxlength="50" size="30">
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td valign="top"">
<label for="last_name">Last Name *</label>
</td>
<td valign="top">
<input type="text" name="last_name" maxlength="50" size="30">
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td valign="top">
<label for="email">Email Address *</label>
</td>
<td valign="top">
<input type="text" name="email" maxlength="80" size="30">
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td valign="top">
<label for="telephone">Telephone Number</label>
</td>
<td valign="top">
<input type="text" name="telephone" maxlength="30" size="30">
</select>
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td valign="top">
<label for="dropdown">Location *</label>
</td>
<td valign="top">
<select name" dropdown">
<option value="downtown">Downtown Charleston</option>
<option value="north">North Charleston</option>
<option value="wilmington">Wilmington</option>
</select>
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td valign="top">
<label for="comments">Comments *</label>
</td>
<td valign="top">
<textarea name="comments" maxlength="1000" cols="28" rows="6"></textarea>
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td colspan="2" style="text-align:right">
<input type="submit" value="Submit">
</td>
</tr>
</table>
</form>
