I think this should work... You'll need a custom plugin that would be attached to the Select elements: package MyCustomPlugin; use base 'HTML::FormFu::Plugin'; sub post_process { my ($self) = @_; my $field = $self->parent; return if !$field->retain_default; my $nested_name = $field->nested_name; return if $form->valid( $nested_name ); $self->form->add_valid( $nested_name, $field->default, ); return; } 1; Then to automatically attach this plugin to all Select elements, you could do: --- default_args: elements: Select: plugins: '+MyCustomPlugin' And if you're using Catalyst::Controller::HTML::FormFu, you can use this: http://search.cpan.org/~cfranks/HTML-FormFu-0.08002/lib/HTML/FormFu/Manual/Cookbook.pod#Application-wide_default_values carl _______________________________________________ HTML-FormFu mailing list HTML-FormFu@lists.scsys.co.uk http://lists.scsys.co.uk/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/html-formfu
