[OFBiz] Users - Form Widget drop-down (current*)

[Chris Chesney]

Al/David,

I think I'm still a little fuzzy on the "current" options and what they
do, but yes, the no-current-selected-key was what I needed.  I have been
using the DTD, but that comment didn't seem to make sense to me at the
time.  It seems to now, though.  I thought I tried the
no-current-selected-key option before posting, but apparently not in the
right combination.  FYI, that's the only option I'm setting now.  I'll
keep playing and see if I can figure out more.  Thanks again for you
help.

Chris

Chris,

Have you tried setting the "no-current-selected-key" to "N"? I have not 
used the "current" and "current-description" attributes. I wonder if 
they are new? "current" and "current-description" seem to be a way to 
override the current description if a value has been selected when the 
select is built. Is it possible that no value is present and you need to

use the "no-current..." attribute?
