I am still playing with SELECT(OPTION()), am having a challenge adding a ---select--- option to a list of options generated from a table. I have this, when it excites it adds an option with no content but with a value of all options see below:
print SELECT(CAT(OPTION('--select--'),*[OPTION(s.name, _value=s.id) for s in db(db.file_subject).select()])) <select> <option value="<option value="--select--">--select--</option><option value="1">Information Technology</option><option value="2">Correspondance</option>"> <option value="--select--">--select--</option> <option value="1">Information Technology</option> <option value="2">Correspondance</option></option> </select> This output is not what is expected, the SELECT is rendered all wrongly, any idea what the helper should look like?
