hi, I am dynamically populating a select box. I would like to have some items already selected, but I would like these to appear at the top of the list.
I have a select box that is populated from a query from the categoryname table <CFQUERY name="category" datasource="#dsn#" dbtype="ODBC"> SELECT categoryID, categoryName FROM categoryName </CFQUERY> <select name="categoryID" size="6" multiple class="searchText"> <cfloop query="category"> <option value="#categoryID#"<cfif ListFind(catlist, "#categoryID#")> selected</cfif>>#categoryname#</option> </cfloop> </select> catlist looks like 1,3 and is from a seperate table. The output is CategoryA << selected CategoryB CategoryB << selected How would i order this so that if an item is selected it is at the top of the list? thanks chad ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Structure your ColdFusion code with Fusebox.
