Hello,
Perhaps this is not the appropriate list to post this, but I'll have a go
;^), may be is to do with HTML formatting?!?!

I have created several Topic queries and some of them have sub-topics, what
I am trying to do is list those in a drop-down menu/s, so that:

1st drop down menu contains the Topic
2nd drop-down menu contains the sub-topic
3rd drop-down contains the results

This is my problem now, how do I go about in loading the Topic, in this case
<dtml-var title>, for all my queries?

I was thinking perhaps, I could load those in a TinyTable, and call them
from that. But then if I wanted to add further topic items, will it be
possible for those to be added to the list -- automatically?

Here is what I have so far:

A Tiny Table called Main Topics

Columns topic_title url_link relurl:int

Data

"Topic1", "/Portal/Members/member/topic1", 1
"Topic2", "/Portal/Members/member/topic1", 1
"Topic3", "/Portal/Members/member/topic1", 1

Now my problem is how to call these into a <SELECT> </SELECT> tags form the
topic_view, and how to insert each new topic entry into the tiny table list?

Thanks

Norman
