If it's a drop down (single item) I usually do: <select name="month"> <option value="1"<?=1==$iMonth?' selected="selected"':''?>>Jan</option> <option value="2"<?=2==$iMonth?' selected="selected"':''?>>Feb</option> <option value="3"<?=3==$iMonth?' selected="selected"':''?>>Mar</option> </select>
If it's a multi, I do this: <select name="month"> <option value="1"<?=in_array(1,$aMonth)?' selected="selected"':''?>>Jan</option> <option value="2"<?=in_array(2,$aMonth)?' selected="selected"':''?>>Feb</option> <option value="3"<?=in_array(3,$aMonth)?' selected="selected"':''?>>Mar</option> </select> -----Original Message----- From: Andy B [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, March 29, 2004 9:53 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [PHP] combo boxes and default selected items how would you go about making a selected item in a combo box?? <select name="month"> <option value="1">Jan</option> <option value="2">Feb</option> <option value="3">Mar</option> </select> for example on the combo box above how would i make the default select item mar instead of jan?? -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
