I get an error when fetching data from a MySQL database using PHP.

```
Undefined variable: result in C:\wamp\www\mbdb\Biomarkerresult1.php on line 20
 mysqli_fetch_array() expects parameter 1 to be mysqli_result, null given in C:\wamp\www\mbdb\Biomarkerresult1.php on line 20

```

My dropdown list coding:

```
<select name="names" value="name">

<option value="Biomarker">Select a Biomarker</option>

<option value="Diagnostic">Diagnostic</option>

<option value="Prognsotic">Prognostic</option>

<option value="Predictive">Predictive</option>

```

Here is displaying data:

```
<?php
$con=mysqli_connect('localhost','root','','mbdb');
if(mysqli_errno($con))
{
    echo "Can't Connect to mySQL:".mysqli_connect_error();
}

if(isset($_POST['names']))
{
    $name = $_POST['names'];
    $fetch="SELECT * FROM metabolites WHERE Biomarker_Category = '".$name."'";
    $result = mysqli_query($con,$fetch);
}
while($row=mysqli_fetch_array($result))
{
    //-----
}

```

Can anyone help me with this?
