Hi
When creating a drop down box you can create the value. When the drop down is displayed, there is a displayed text which is the same. Is there a way in Form Builder to have the value be one thing and what is actually displayed different?

for example what I would like to see is:

<option id="item13_1_option" value="meal1"> Meat and Potatoes </option>

In FB the value and the display are the same.
<option id="item13_1_option" value="meal1"> Meal1 </option>

thanks

I can't hear what I'm looking at.
It's easy to overlook something you're not looking for.

Hi Eric,
The dropdowns work really well until the web page is displayed for around the 3rd time. Then I get an error. There is no error number or message, just that an error occurred while trying to return data. I think it has to do with the max queries for mysql. I am on godaddy. Would you know how/where I could change that info?
