Piece of cake - here it is: (I have structured it to be easy to read.) This code assumes that the variable customerid on the form contains a value that matches up with customerid in custcompanysearch _______________________________________ <dtml-let tcustid="customerid"> <select name="customerid"> <dtml-in custcompanysearch> <option value=<dtml-var customerid> <dtml-if "customerid==tcustid">selected</dtml-if>> <dtml-var firstname> <dtml-var lastname></option> </dtml-in> </select> <dtml-let> _______________________________________ Jim Sanford .

This form has a select box for with a list of customers in the database so that a user can easily select who made the order. Everything in this form works fine except for the select box. The select box shows the option at the top of the list everytime. This is not what I am looking for however, I need the select box to reflect what the customer that placed the order. I could easily do this with the select except for the fact that the select information is dynamically filled by a query. The following code is used. <select name="customerid"><dtml-in custcompanysearch><option value=<dtml-var customerid>><dtml-var firstname> <dtml-var lastname></dtml-in></select> The entire form is in a <dtml-in> that has a customerid value. I would like to have the current customer show up in this box. How would I tell the select box to select the current custoemer as default? ________________________________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free E-mail from MSN Hotmail at http://www.hotmail.com _______________________________________________ Zope maillist - Zope@zope.org http://lists.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope ** No cross posts or HTML encoding! ** (Related lists - http://lists.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-announce http://lists.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-dev )
