Default Drop-down fields in web pages

Hi Joel

When I choose to save my protected document as a Web Page (any kind, Word
2003), the values of the drop-down fields are not saved properly. The fields
continue to work while I'm using MS Word. But when I load the *.htm or *.mht
file into the web browser, the drop-down form and its value is missing from
the web page. All other text and fields are present.

Is this just broken? And is there a workaround to get the selected item of
the drop-down box to appear. I don't need the form to work on the web page -


good, because unfortunately, life isn't that easy! :-)


I just want it to retain and show the field item (text) that was chosen
before I saved it as a web page.


Then it's probably best to unlink the form field(s) before saving as
HTML. The shortcut for this is CRTL-SHIFT-F9 (I think; sorry, no running
Word present here at the moment :-)).
