Called Routine:
ASP/perl tag calls:
$Tag->selected( { name => VALUE, value => VALUE, multiple => VALUE, } ) OR $Tag->selected($name, $value, $multiple);
You can provide a ``memory'' for drop-down menus, radio buttons, and checkboxes with the [checked] and [selected] tags.
This will output
SELECTED if the variable var_name
is equal to
value. If the optional
MULTIPLE argument is present, it will look for any of
a variety of values. Not case sensitive.
Here is a drop-down menu that remembers an item-modifier color selection:
<SELECT NAME="color"> <OPTION [selected color blue]> Blue <OPTION [selected color green]> Green <OPTION [selected color red]> Red </SELECT>
Here is the same thing, but for a shopping-basket color selection
<SELECT NAME="[modifier-name color]"> <OPTION [selected [modifier-name color] blue]> Blue <OPTION [selected [modifier-name color] green]> Green <OPTION [selected [modifier-name color] red]> Red </SELECT>
