I had read that after I found related topics on the forum before.
Obviously I didn't set the backticks correctly. Thanks for getting me to
try once more...


The following does the job:

{html_options name=$drop.fscm_1.name values=$fscm_1 output=$fscm_1
class="bg_`$drop.fscm_1.color`" style=width:`$drop.fscm_1.width`
onchange=$drop.fscm_1.js}

Ciao, Peggy
