I never use cfselect, if i needed to, I would just use select but that wont
help with your current problem, interestingly enough I created a custom tag
that creates plum dropdowns that uses the plum cf_DisplaySelectMenu custom
tag if you are interested. It can create the dropdown from a query object or
a list (or other stuff like arrays too).

the tag assumes that you send in two lists which can be
#valuelist(plumusers.userID)# and #valuelist(plumusers.username)#.

the other attributes are pretty self explanatory, and it insinuates itself
nicely in the plum forms, at least in my experience.

let me know if you use it and what problems/questions/concerns you have.

Subject: [plum] context validation error for tag cfselect


Hey there,

I'm trying to use a <cfselect> tag within <cf_displayExtraFormContent> tag.
I am getting the following error:

  "context validation error for tag cfselect"

The first time I got the error I assumed it was because it was within the
<cf_displayExtraFormContent> tag.  But when I moved the <cfselect> outside
the <cf_DisplayAddForm> tag, I still get the same error.

Here is the select:

<cfselect name="estimators" required="yes" message="pick one"
query="plumusers" value="userId" display="username"></cfselect>

A <cfdump> reveals the query is returning the expected results.

Thanks for the help,

Mark Fuqua
