Thanks Prabu ,
Works great. I'm not having any luck finding good documentation on
this so I'll throw 2 more questions at you if that's okay:
Is there a method for setting the selected value as with the html
below? Also, is it possible to display meaningful text instead of the
value as with the html below?
<select name="'dropdown'" size="1">
<option value="one">On
<option value="two" selected>Off
</select>
Cheers,
Mark
Hello Mark,
Hope this helps you,
#!/usr/bin/perl
use CGI;
$p = new CGI;
print $p->header;
print $p->start_html();
%attributes = ('on'=>{'name'=>'one'},'off'=>{'name'=>'two'});
print $p->popup_menu(-name=>'dropdown', -size=>'1',
-values=>['on','off'],
-default=>'off',-attributes=>\%attributes);
print $p->end_html;

Hi,
does anybody have the correct syntax for using a drop down list.
I'm using the object oriented type syntax for CGI. For example my text
boxes are printed thus :
$cgi = new CGI;
print $cgi->input({-type=>"text",-name=>"textbox01",-class=>"textbox"})
drop down list innormal html would be :
<select name="selectName" size="1">
<option value="one">First
<option value="two">Second
<option value="three">Third
</select>
cant figure out for cgi . . . .??
Cheers,
Mark

See a small program for dropdown (popup_menu)
#!/usr/bin/perl
use CGI;
$p = new CGI;
print $p->header;
print $p->start_html();
print
$p->popup_menu(-name=>'dropdown',-values=>['one','two','three','four']);
print $p->end_html;
