Zobrazí, kolikrát se místo objevilo v příslušné tabulce poté, co byla vybrána odpovídající možnost z rozevíracího seznamu

Pokud jsem správně pochopil, domnívám se, že váš problém je přesně stejný jako předchozí . Chybí vám pouze klauzule WHERE.

Podívejte se, jestli to funguje:

$con = new mysqli("localhost" ,"root" ,"" ,"user_databases");

//query buildings table for the dropdown
$bquery = mysqli_query($con, "SELECT building_ID, building_name FROM buildings");

$selectedbldg = null;

// if the form was submitted
if (!empty($_POST['bldg']))  {
    // store selected building_ID
    $selectedbldg = $_POST['bldg'];
    // the subquery is used to count how many times each location appears
    // for a particular building
    $count = mysqli_query($con, "
        SELECT lo.location_ID, lo.location_name, dt.num_visits
        FROM location lo
        JOIN (
            SELECT location_ID, COUNT(location_ID) AS num_visits
            FROM delivery_transaction 
            WHERE building_ID = {$selectedbldg}
            GROUP BY location_ID
        ) AS dt ON lo.location_ID = dt.location_ID
    ");

    // like before, better to use prepared statement
}
?>

            <?php if (isset($count) && mysqli_num_rows($count)) : ?>

                    <td>No results to display</td>
                </tr>
            <?php endif ?>
            </tbody>
