</select>

I need to set the value of the drop box to OHIO.
I tried to read through the documentation on the setSelected and select commands, but am confused about the format of the command.

Can anyone help me out please?

Thanks,
Alex

Hi,

Try using:
_setSelected(_select("__SFX_UniqueID_136"), "OHIO");
or
_setSelected(_select("driverLicenseState"), "OHIO");
