When I change it to period_id the entire select box disappears.
See how in the source code, it populates the correct information, but
when it submits, the "option value" doesn't get sent to the correct
field. It actually doesn't get sent anywhere. After submit, my table
has a new entry that looks like:
period_id:0
user:_id:14 (the correct user)
