Les;
If you are filling this list box with dynamically generated code, what about
this?
<CFLOOP QUERY="myQry">
<select name="region">
<CFIF myqry.Country EQ "Africa">
<option value="#myqry.email#" selected>#myqry.Country#
#myqry.email#</option>
<CFELSE>
<option value="#myqry.email#">#myqry.Country# #myqry.email#</option>
</cfif>
</select>
</cfloop>

Subject: How to display Value and Label from listbox
Trying to figure out how to format output for a listbox on a form, such as
below:
<select name="Region">
<option value="[EMAIL PROTECTED]" selected>Africa</option>
<option value="[EMAIL PROTECTED]">Asia & Pacific</option>
<option value="[EMAIL PROTECTED]">Eastern South America</option>
</select>
On the action page, I can easily get the value to come up
<CFOUTPUT>
#Region#
</CFOUTPUT>
However, I need BOTH the value, and the Item Label to display, like:
Region Email
Africa [EMAIL PROTECTED]
For processing purposes, I'm ONLY using the value (the email address) but
for display purposes, and since there's close to 50 regions in the list, I
need to see the label as well so the client will know if they selected the
right region or not.
That make any sense?
Thanks!
