getting the select value

[eluser]_Moat_[/eluser]
CroNiX,
just to be clear, with my code i was able to fill the options from db without a problem, but when i submit the form and try to catch the selected option it gives me 0.

now i tried what u suggested but still the post of the 'ID' => 0
and the variable in

Code:

echo form_dropdown('ID', $ctg_ids, set_value('ID'), 0);

this line should be

Code:

echo form_dropdown('ID', $frm1_ctg, set_value('ID'), 0);

since i store it in my controller at $frm1_ctg

thnx for your help.
