Not really something that i would expect to find in the DevX, regardless of how powerful the search tool is. Just do a normal <select>, as well as a text input as you described. On the form's action page, just run a condition to see if the text input is blank. If it is, use the value from the <select>. If not, use the text input value. Some js on the form to prevent both a select value and a text input value would be nice too. If you need that, lemme know and i'll throw something together. charlie ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/index.cfm?forumid=4 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/index.cfm?method=subscribe&forumid=4 FAQ: http://www.thenetprofits.co.uk/coldfusion/faq Your ad could be here.
