Hello,
i´m using the dropdown-listbox within the add-form. Is it possible, to use a "real" Listbox with several entries in html-style like "< option value =$value" or so?
Best regards

ok, so i try to explain:
My listbox should show about 10 entries. If i generate a dropdown-box in phpr, i can change the size in phpr, but as i open the file, phpr has builded, the dropdown always shoe one entry and the user has to klick on the dropdown to see the following entries.
If i build a deopdown with pure html, i can see all entries without a mouseclick.
So the problem is, that i wish to generate a dropdown with a size, that allows to see all entries with one view.
Thanks so long

Patrick,
try to increase Multiline rows value on the "Edit as" settings dialog for your dropdown.

Jane,
at the moment i´m not in my office, so i can´t look at my project in phpr. But i´m sure i have used this setting.
The code, which phpr generates, looks (in the template) like this:
{build_edit_control field="Leistung" value=$value_Leistung mode="edit"}
Is there a possibility to change it directly in the code?
Best regards
