Unable to repopulate select box after form submit - El Forum - 10-09-2011
[eluser]term25[/eluser]
I have this in my view:
Code:
$options = array(
'first' => 'First option',
'second' => 'Second option',
'third' => 'Third option',
);
echo form_dropdown('what', $options, 'third');And now always the third option is shown when the fields are repopulating after submit validation error.
I can repopulate input fileds but I am unable to repopulate select dropdown boxes.
How to repopulate them after submit?
I do not want that user get back when he had make a mistake and everything he chose in dropdown selectboxes is missing and he has to set it again.
Thanks in advance for any help.
