Combobox: How to set display field and value field

[Loganathan Karunakaran]

Hi All,

I need some help with javascript. I have a combobox(dropdown) with the following data

<option value='1'> AAA</option>
<option value='2'> BBB</option>
<option value='3'> CCC</option>
<option value='4'> DDD</option>

When I select something, I see the numbers. For eg. if I select CCC, it displays 3.But I want to show CCC. How could I do this.
I need to hide the values from showing to user.

Thanks.

You don't have a ComboBox unless you're using some sort of UI library or have some other JavaScript doing stuff. We're not going to be able to help unless you tell us what that is. A standard HTML select works exactly like you say you want.

As Rob pointed out, unlikely. We even have a FAQ entry for this: HtmlHasNoComboBox

When I select something, I see the numbers.

Where do you see the numbers? In the submission? Yes, that's correct. Elsewhere? If so, where?
