I'm trying to insert a SELECT element into a "Magical HTML" box. I'm not trying to use one of the presets. The Help article (http://www.coffeecup.com/help/articles/the-html-element-in-web-form-builder/) says that "You can copy and paste HTML code directly into this box" -- which is what I do, from a plain-text editor:


<select>
<option selected="selected" value="0">0</option>
<option value="1">1</option>
<option value="2">2</option>
<option value="3">3</option>
<option value="4">4</option>
<option value="5">5</option>
<option value="6">6</option>
</select>


But WFB keeps turning that code into this:


<select>0 1 2 3 4 5 6</select>


Why is this?

EDIT: I'm using the latest WFB - Version 2.3 Build 5205

That really will not work Paul. You cannot insert other form elements into a form using the HTML Tool. You should use drop down list element in the software instead.
