To specify the item to pick, you must add a " selected" keyword to the appropriate option tag. Typically in PHP, this is done with a series of if statements. For example, <option value="One voyage only"<?php If ($row['voyage'] == 'One voyage only') { echo ' selected'; } ?>>One voyage only</option> Hope that helps, Paul Burney http://paulburney.com/ http://webdevel.burney.ws/ -- PHP Database Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To contact the list administrators, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
