Is there a way to set a default value on a dropdown with a prevalue set?
Hi Amir,
Way you do it, is by write the value in the default value field. So if you have a prevalue called Option1 then just add Option1 in the default value.
I have made screenshot, so it easier to understand.
I have added some test prevalue data like this:
To set the default value on a dropdown:
On the site it looks like this when I preview the form i Contour:
I hope this will work for you too, on the Contour version you´re using. I have tested it on a version 3.0.18

Hi Dennis, this works fine when you add the values directly to the field, but with using an external datasource for prevalues.

I was thinking could this at any help maybe? http://www.nibble.be/?p=84 or http://www.nibble.be/?cat=29
There are also a link to the Contour developer documentation pdf, even I know is not updated since 2011.
Actually the first url @Dennis posted should work. I have this set up on some of my website using contour.
This is a pretty nice feature and working with 3.0.12 pretty much the same as older version but if am not mistaken it has been improved.
For me I have SQL Database and Values from Textfile working.
Yeah should work the same so just set the default value
is working on a reply...
