Try something like this:
<select name="selectSystem" size="1" class="inputfield">
<option value="" <cfif NOT Len(form.value)>selected</cfif>>Select
system...</option>
<option value=" Nintendo GameCube" <cfif NOT CompareNoCase("Nintendo
GameCube",form.value)>selected</cfif> Nintendo GameCube</option>
...
</select>
If your drop down box is being populated from a query it becomes easier:
<select name="selectSystem">
<cfloop query="systemSelect">
<option value="#value#" <cfif NOT
CompareNoCase(value,form.selectSystem)>selected</cfif>>#display#</option
>
</cfloop>
</select>

Subject: Selecting form
Hi,
I have a form where I'm storing all the input fields into FORM.variables
so if the user hits the "refresh" the form is reloaded and all the input
fields are retained.
I have a dropdown menu selection in my form. How can I have the below
code do the same. What am I doing wrong?
Console System:
<select name="selectSystem" size="1" class="inputfield">
<cfif value is FORM.value>
<cfset isSelected='selected'>
<cfelse>
<cfset isSelected = ''>
</cfif>
<option value="" default>Select System...</option>
<option value="Nintendo GameCube" #isSelected#>Nintendo
GameCube</option>
<option value="Nintendo GameBoy" #isSelected#>Nintendo GameBoy</option>
<option value="Microsoft XBox" #isSelected#>Microsoft XBox</option>
</select>
