No, the only thing submitted for a <select> group is the value attribute of the selection. But you can make a compound value, something like "1;male" and "2;female". Then, when the form is submitted you simply break that string on the semicolon and use whichever part is convenient. -- Tim Slattery [EMAIL PROTECTED] --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
