SELECTED="<@arg projects>" will do it.

 

If you lose your default, try something like this:

 

  <@IF EXPR='<@ARG ContactState>=""'
   TRUE='<@assign name="temp" scope="request" value="@@user$defaultstate[*,BaseOneId]">'
   FALSE='<@assign name="temp" scope="request" value="<@ARG ContactState>">'>
  <@CHOICELIST NAME="ContactState" TYPE="select" OPTIONS="@@user$statelist[*,BaseOneItem]"
   VALUES="@@user$statelist[*,BaseOneId]" SELECTED="@@request$temp">

Subject: Witango-Talk: selected value in @choicelist

I have a drop down list that stays on the top of a page with the search results  below.  When a search is done using the list, I want the selected item to remain selected in the list, instead of the list reverting back to the default.  I can manually do it without using choicelist by having an if statement check the item id and add the word selected on true.  Is there a way to dynamically use the selected attribute of @choicelist?  I've  tried @currow  in the array element, but that doesnt seem to work.

 

Here is my code for choicelist:

 

<@CHOICELIST NAME="projects" TYPE=SELECT OPTIONS="@@request$projects[*,2]" VALUES="@@request$projects[*,1]" SIZE=1 SELECTED="@@request$projects[<@currow>,2]">

Here is my manual code for the other drop down list:

 

<SELECT NAME="student" SIZE="1">
<@ROWS array="usstudents">
<OPTION VALUE="@@request$usstudents[<@currow>,1]"
<@IF EXPR="@@request$usstudents[<@currow>,1]=<@arg student>">selected</@IF>>@@request$usstudents[<@currow>,2] @@request$usstudents[<@currow>,3] @@request$usstudents[<@currow>,4] 

</OPTION>

</@ROWS></SELECT>

 

Thanks,

John
