???? select fields outside of table ????
This is really wierd, I have loads of select fields/check boxes/radios but only in the middle of the table long select field boxes are jumping to the top of the table (well actually between DBman's and mine). I'm using JP's and george J's html.pl Smile thanks you 2!!!!

Here's the code (it's actually being used for a group of my automobile ethusiates friends ....)

It could be something as simple as

Quote:
<TD HEIGHT="25"> アメリカ </TD
<TD HEIGHT="25"> |; print &build_select_field ("US_Cars", "$rec{'US_Cars'}"); print
qq|</TD>

You're missing the closing > at the end of the closing cell tag in the first line above.
In fact, you're missing that character a whole lot of times. That might just do it. Smile

No problem. Smile It's easy to make that kind of mistake and the result is so odd that it doesn't seem to relate to the typo. (The only reason I had an idea as to the problem was that I did pretty much the same thing a while back!)
