Return Listbox label instead of Value

[James Brown]

Hi there.

I want to return the value of a list box's label rather than it's value, can
this be done and if so how - the list box has static rather than dynamic
content.?

ie. <OPTION VALUE="2" SELECTED>United Kingdom</OPTION>

I want to retrieve United Kingdom.

Regards

James Brown

First off... Do you feel good?

Why don't you just use United Kingdom as the value and label?

As Drew said, why do you want to retrieve the label?

If you need to have it as you have it now, then lookup the value in a
database to find the label.
