dropdown menu on contact page

Yeah, if you could PM the code to me, or post it on the boards here for other people to see as well, then that would be great. From what I understand, your code calls the ENTRY_ORDER_STATUS and ENTRY_ORDER_CHANGE variables, among others. This other code you're talking about is how and where those variables are defined, right?

Thanks a lot for your help,

Luke

Sorry this took so long, here is what I did ( this is for a form to contact about retail orders so change for what you need as needed)

In the file /includes/languages/english/YOUR_STORE/contact_retail.php

define('ENTRY_ORDER_CHANGE', 'I Need to Change My Order');
define('ENTRY_WEBSITE', 'Website Problems');
define('ENTRY_SHOPPING_CART', 'Shopping Cart Problems');
define('ENTRY_OTHER', 'Other');

contact_retail.php is what I called my file, change as needed.

then in the file /includes/templates/YOUR_STORE/templates/tpl_contact_retail_default.php

<label class="inputLabel" for="inquiry_area"><?php echo ENTRY_INQUIRY_DROPDOWN; ?></label>
<?php echo  "<select name=\"inquiry_area\">" . '<option value="order status">' . ENTRY_ORDER_STATUS . '</option>' . '<option value="change order">' . ENTRY_ORDER_CHANGE . '</option>' . '<option value="website problems">' . ENTRY_WEBSITE . '</option>' . '<option value="shopping cart problems">' . ENTRY_SHOPPING_CART . '</option>' . '<option value="other">' . ENTRY_OTHER . '</option>' . "</select>";?>
<br class="clearBoth" />

Where the code corresponds to the name in the contact_retail.php and the option value is for the header so the email will look correct when sent to whoever is receiving it.

Finally, in the file /includes/modules/pages/contact_retail/header.php

"Area of Inquiry:\t\t" . strip_tags($_POST['inquiry_area']) . "\n" .

This way it sends correctly.
