I tried it with quotes and it still returned an error. The code I posted is from 1998 so I would not be surprised if it was not valid in version 2 or even later versions of 1.3 for that matter. But if memory serves correct, that code was recommended by Gerald at some point because I don't remember being that clever in 1998 :) Aaron > > Ed > > On 25 Jul 2002, Aaron Johnson wrote: > > > I was digging up some old code and thought I would run it through 2.08b, > > I was aware of the foreach with no parentheses change, which this code > > had, but this block of code now throws an error as well: > > > > [+ if ($result1->[$count][3] eq "Regular After") {SELECTED} +] > > > > It provides a dynamic "selected" inside of a select form element.
