help with zen_draw_pull_down_menu function

[keithstric]

Hello all, hopefully this is in the proper forum topic. But, I'm new to zen cart customization and am trying to use some of the built in functions. I'm also kinda new to php development but have done some, I can get around and usually figure out what I need to do. But I'm having an issue with the zen_draw_pull_down_menu function. Here's my code:

$modArray = array('Trex250','Trex450','Trex500','Trex600','Trex700');
echo zen_draw_pull_down_menu('select_model',$modArray);

I've looped through the array echoing out to the screen the contents of the array and the proper values are there. But in the drop down I only get the first letter of each array value, not the entire value.

Can someone please help?

Sorry, forgot to include the version numbers:
* Open SuSE Linux 11.1
* zen cart 1.3.8a
* Apache 2.2.8
* mysql 5.0.51a
* php 5.2.9

You need to make it a multi-dimensional array, with 'id' being the value that will be returned by the form, and 'text' being the displayed text in the pulldown.

 $modArray = array();
 $modArray[] = array('id' => '1', 'text' => 'Trex250');
 $modArray[] = array('id' => '2', 'text' => 'Trex450');
 $modArray[] = array('id' => '3', 'text' => 'Trex500');
 $modArray[] = array('id' => '4', 'text' => 'Trex600');
 $modArray[] = array('id' => '5', 'text' => 'Trex700');
