[Null]

Well, I am trying to ad an adminpage to bbPortal. I am quite far, got the admin page, it checks the db for the table bb_portal and if it doesntexcsits, it creates the table.

Also the form is working (the looks anyway), but how do I get the forum id from <?php forum_dropdown(); ?> cause it gives the name only. And I want it that when people select the forumname using this ddlb the forum id will be written to pforum_id when pressing submit.

Sec problem; people can fill in a number for the Number of topics on the portal in an input field, but now comes the noob question:

How the hell do I update this input to the db?

This is my form for now:

<form action="<?php echo $bb->domain. $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI']; ?>" method="post">

<?php do_action('portal_option_form_elements',''); ?>

<h3><?php _e('Portal settings'); ?></h3>

<table>

<tr><th scope="row"><?php _e('Where do you want to pull the topics from?'); ?></th>

<td><?php forum_dropdown(); ?></td>

</tr>

<tr><th scope="row"><?php _e('Number of topics on the portal:'); ?></th>

<td><input type="text" name="number-of-topics" id="number-of-topics" /></td>

</tr>

</table>

<p class="submit alignleft"><input type="submit" value="Submit" name="submit">

</form>

And this is the table where the info must be put in:

Table name: $bbdb->portal

pforum_id int(10) NOT NULL,

number_of_topics int(10) NOT NULL

Hope you guys can help me
