DVWP Dropdown Default Value
- Hi,
On my newpage.aspx
I wanted to change the order of one of my dropdowns for my columns.
So I created a SPdatasource, inserted it into my page. Then added a DVWP displayed as a dropdown.
This all works fine, it inserts into the list but here the problem. I would like to have the dropdown default to one of the values when the page opens. Right now it shows as a blank option.
I don't see anything in the properties of the dropdown a way to do this, is this possible?
Thanks

Hi illegal operation,
you have to look into "option" property, and set "selected" property. In html code, it would be like:
<select>
<option value="v" name="n" selected="selected">
In xslt when data is dynamically binding, you could use <xsl:attribute> to attach an attribute such as:
<option value="*">
<xsl:attribute name="selected">
<xsl:value-of select="selected"/>
</xsl:attribute>
