I want to be able to preset a select box option where the options are being created from an entries tag. The value being passed into the embedded template DOES exist and DOES match once of the entry titles, but the select box isn’t being preset:
{assign_variable:my_value="{embed:value}"}
{exp:weblog:entries weblog="system_names"}
<option value="{title}" {if title == my_value}SELECTED{/if} >{title}</option>
{/exp:weblog:entries}Can anyone assist on this ? - thx

NEVER MIND, I did this before and forgot what the solution was:
{assign_variable:my_value="{embed:value}"}
{exp:weblog:entries weblog="system_names"}
<option value="{title}" <?php if ('{title}' == '{my_value}') { echo 'SELECTED'; } ?> >{title}</option>
{/exp:weblog:entries}
