Dynamic Value in a List/Menu Form Field

[Brachole]

I need to display an HTML Form which includes a List/Menu field. The values in the List/Menu field are number (1,2,3,etc...).

I have a recordset which has a dynamic value. If the dynamic value is set to 5, I want to display options 1,2,3,4,5. If the dynamic value is set to 2, then only show 1,2.

So basically, the option list should no be greater than the dynamic value.

<select name="quantity" id="quantity">
   <option value="1">1</option>
   <option value="2">2</option>
   <option value="3">3</option>
</select>

If myVal > 0 then response.write("<option value=""1"">1</option>")
If myVal > 1 then response.write("<option value=""2"">2</option>")
etc..

unless you plan to have a lot, then you would use a loop like for i = 0 to myVal

I don't think this is what I'm looking for. In your example, if myVal = 5, then the options would up to 5 numbers.

<select name="quantity" id="quantity">
   <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>
</select>

If myVal = 10, then it shows up to 10 numbers.

<select name="quantity" id="quantity">
   <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>
   <option value="7">7</option>
   <option value="8">8</option>
   <option value="9">9</option>
   <option value="10">10</option>
</select>

If myVal = 1, then it only shows 1 as a number.

<select name="quantity" id="quantity">
   <option value="1">1</option>
</select>

That's what you asked for. I re-read your post and don't see a different meaning. Maybe you need to explain better what you want. I showed you how to get five options if your value is 5.

A simpler way, using a loop

for i = 1 to myVal
response.write("<option value="""&i&""">"&i&"</option>")
next

sorry about this...but I don't understand the '&i&'

<select name="quantity" id="quantity">
        for i = <%=(rsOrderHistoryDetails.Fields.Item("DetailQuantity").Value)%>
response.write("<option value="""&i&""">"&i&"</option>")
next
</select>

[yamaharuss]

This is ASP.. enclose your code properly:

<select name="quantity" id="quantity">
<&#37;
        for i = 1 to rsOrderHistoryDetails.Fields.Item("DetailQuantity").Value)
response.write("<option value="""&i&""">"&i&"</option>")
next
%>
</select>
