Sure, you're right: radio buttons have a lot of layout flexibility that is not relevant to a select box. Personally I think that flexibility is less important than a standardized syntax. Sure you need to be able to arrange your radio buttons using DIVs or TDs or BRs or whatever, but that's about it, isn't it? There's little point debating something that's never going to be fixed, but the kind of code you see in IE's data binding could have provided this flexibility along with syntax consistency. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/index.cfm?forumid=4 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/index.cfm?method=subscribe&forumid=4 FAQ: http://www.thenetprofits.co.uk/coldfusion/faq This list and all House of Fusion resources hosted by CFHosting.com.
