That's got to do with the browser itself. When you say the value is 28506, do you mean the value="28506" or the display text is 28506? Browsers use the display text as your choice when you type. But IE only takes you to type the first character you type. So you type 2 it'll take you to the first 2, then type 8 and it'll take you to the first 8 (if there is one).

I have a standard html select control. I wrap the a query around the options to pull values from a query. The values are numeric and I have them sorted in ascending order. If there is a value in the record that I want to get to immediately I am unable to do so. For example, if the number 28506 is a value, I would like to start typing that number and narrow down to that value but it isn't working. If I just have a loop and go from 1 to 30000 and loop through the query I able to do just that. If there something about cfoutput that prevents this from working like this? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Introducing the Fusion Authority Quarterly Update. 80 pages of hard-hitting, up-to-date ColdFusion information by your peers, delivered to your door four times a year. http://www.fusionauthority.com/quarterly Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/message.cfm/messageid:251375 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.4
