With select(), how can I get it to just add ''multiple''
to the tag? Here''s what I''m doing:
select ''obj'', ''prop'', collection, {},
{:multiple=>true, :size=>10}
which outputs:
<select multiple="multiple" name="obj[prop]"
size="10">
I''d like it to look like this:
<select multiple name="obj[prop]" size="10">
Possible?
thanks
csn

HTML 3 maybe, but all HTML parsers will accept multiple="multiple", plus you get XHTML compliance should you need it.

<select multiple> is valid HTML 4.01: http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/interact/forms.html#h-17.6 But you two are correct, attributes must have values in XHTML: http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/#h-4.4 Well, as long as browsers can handle ''multiple="multiple"'' and ''selected="selected"'' (which at least my Firefox and IE can)... csn __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
