No <option selected="selected" > in xHTML.
In HTML selected was a single item so it has to be doubled in xHTML in both the name/value pair. I don't believe that selected="anything else" would work in xHTML. The value portion is probably ignored in HTML Sandra Clark ============================== http://www.shayna.com Training in Cascading Style Sheets and Accessibility -----Original Message----- From: DURETTE, STEVEN J (ASI-AIT) [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, December 07, 2006 9:36 AM To: CF-Talk Subject: RE: Weird in Firefox: drop down list with selected item I believe. (don't flame me if I'm wrong) but if it is xhtml it has to be selected="true". I've started coding it that way so I don't have to worry if I've got HTML or XHTML. I close all my single tags now also!

I normally just use the first one. ;-) Try control + shift + R to make sure FF just isn't remembering the last selection. ....:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.

What is weird is that in the source code it shows correct. Any other way of entering a "selected" in firefox? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Create robust enterprise, web RIAs.
