    Default display query in selection

    I want to create a drop down, or selection list with a query from a db. Can
    anyone give a hint or explain how to do this? I tried cfselect but can't get
    the data to display.

    The value of the attribute Query, which is currently "qwe", is invalid.

    Here's the code, <cfselect query="#display_all.make#" name="selection"
    visible="yes"></cfselect>

    It actually reads the data from the db, but will not display it. I tried
    mutiple columns. Thanks!!

    yes I an a n00b :)

    I figured it out

    <cfselect name="delete">
    <option value="Select an item"</option>
    <cfoutput query="display_all">
    <option value="#model#">#model#</option>
    </cfoutput>
    </cfselect>
