I have to admit that I seldom use my on-rev acoount and have just
been using it to host some mailto form submissions.
This has all worked well for me for a basic form submission when the
form just has text entry boxes
I store the entered data into the rev variable using <?rev put
VarName ?>
Like this
<input type="text" name="email" size="50" maxlength="80" value="<?
rev put tEmail ?>" />
Now, I am the first to admit, I know only enough about form creation
on html and On-rev to be dangerous.
Now, I need to add a new selection field to my form and store that
data in tSal
I don't know how to do this.
To create the selection list, I use
<SELECT name="Salution" >
<OPTION selected value="">-- Please Select --</OPTION><OPTION
value=Mr>Mr</OPTION><OPTION value=Mrs>Mrs</OPTION><OPTION
value=Ms>Ms</OPTION></SELECT>
Where do I put <?rev put tSal ?>
Thanks in advance for anyone who can answer this. I am under the
gun to complete this project and can't find any quick reference to
solve this for me.
I would think you want to add another choice for the user that is the
stored data value.
Caution, what if tSal is empty ??
(note: HTML ignores CR chars)
<SELECT name="Salution" >
<OPTION selected value="">-- Please Select --</OPTION>
<OPTION value="<?rev put tSal ?>"><?rev put tSal ?></OPTION>
<OPTION value=Mr>Mr</OPTION>
<OPTION value=Mrs>Mrs</OPTION>
<OPTION value=Ms>Ms</OPTION>
</SELECT>
You could add an IF to skip in the case of empty.
if tSal is not empty then put <OPTION value="<?rev put tSal ?>"><?rev
put tSal ?></OPTION>
Hope this works for you. At least this should get you close to the
correct solution.
(not tested, but it looks OK )
