Hi All,

In a drop down box i am populating all the weeks from 1 to 52, but
whenever the page loads, i want it show the current week number as
selected value.

Below is what is did:

<option selected value="<% DatePart("ww", Now()) %>"> <% wkCnt %> </
option>

But when my page loads, the drop down box shows the last week in the
list (52), instead of current week which is 43.

please let me know i am missing something.

appreciate any ideas on this.

Thank you!!

Navin

View Source to see the actual output.of you server-side code. If that
does not provide the clue for you, you need to show us how to reproduce
the symptom: show us the rest of the code to generate the options.

I am using the below code to populate the drop down with all the 52
weeks.

<p><select size="1" name="actDate">
            <%
            Dim wkCnt

            for wkCnt = 1 to 52
            %>
            <option selected value="<% DatePart("ww", Now()) %>"> <% wkCnt %> </
option>
            <% Next %>

            </select></p>

thanks,
Navin

Perhaps you want the following:

<p>
<select name="actDate" size="1">
<% Dim wkCnt, wkNow
For wkCnt = 1 To 52
wkNow = ""
If wkCnt = DatePart("ww",Now) Then wkNow = " selected"
%>
<option value='" & wkCnt & "'" & wkNow & ">" & wkCnt & "</option>"
<% Next %>
</select>
</p>
