Extra field Drop down list in User Registration

[hel68c +]

Does anyone could help me on this problem?

I would like to include in the user records a drop down list field to find out who to refer to my website.

I enabled the fields EXTRA1 in the "User Registration Fields"

I added this code in the "userjoin.tpl" But it does not work.

<td>
<select name="refer"
onchange=this.form.extra.value++;
<option>"Choose"</option>
<option>"Friend"</option>
<option >"Other site"</option>
<option >"Search engine"</option>
<option >"Magazine"</option>
<option >"Exposition"</option>
</select>
<input name="extra" type="HIDDEN" value="{$extra}" />
-->
</td>

I don't know how to add the selection to the variable $extra

I'm not quite sure, but I think you're overcomplicating it with javascript and all.
Try this instead using standard XHTML:

<td>
<select name="extra" id="extra" value="">
<option value="Choose">Choose</option>
<option value="Friend">Friend</option>
<option value="Other site">Other Site</option>
<option value="Search engine">Search engine</option>
<option value="Magazine">Magazine</option>
<option value="Exposition">Exposition</option>
<option value="Other">Other</option>
</select>
</td>

I haven't tested it, but I believe that should work. I use this code with different option values on my site although my site is running the legendary v3.1.10.
