Change '-' blank option was created by oliverb

Hi,

I would like to change the blank '-' option in a drop down box to read 'Select City', 'Select Countries'. I know that you can change this setting in the module parameters but that would be for all the drop down boxes. I need it to read 'select city' and 'select countries'.

Please can someone tell me how this is possible??

Thanks

You should:
a) set module parameter 'Select Label Position' to 'Inside': that will change the empty option from ' - ' to the name of the filed (e.g. City)
b) make a small modification to modules/mod_cpsearch/tmpl/default.php, changing line 88 from:

Code:

echo "<option value=\"\" class=\"empty$moduleclass_sfx\">" . htmlspecialchars($field->label) . "</option>\n";

to:

Code:

echo "<option value=\"\" class=\"empty$moduleclass_sfx\"> - Select " . htmlspecialchars($field->label) . " - </option>\n";

Thank you for your quick reply!

Is there any way to have the label in both positions?
