combo box

[derksj]

Hi
i have got this script with an admin section
in this admin section is a dropdown box that writes names to a database
when i open the admin the dropdownlist always opens at the first name in the list
that means that if i dont change the name in the drop down list the data base will be over written with the wrong name
what can i do to prevent this problem

Dynamically create the combo box.

So get the current value from the database then loop through each of the selections of the combo box and check the current value with combo box selection. If it matches then append "selected" to the value.

So when the combo box is displayed the database value will be selected instead of the first value.

Hope this helps.
