form css to replace "select..."

[JD_Nelson]

Is there a way to override the 'select...' text in a dropdown on a form?  What's the

.mktoForm select.mktoField {

?????

You don't do that in CSS, you do it in the Form Editor itself. Just go to that field and edit the values. The topmost value is the default text.

I actually want to change the drop down though, not the label. Other fields would be the "Hint Text" but with a dropdown it defaults to the first selection in the list, which is 'select...' but when I change it, it doesn't save; it just keep 'select...' there has to be something overwriting it...?

Turns out I wasn't hitting return after typing in the default value, just clicking save - which cancelled my changed...

also, good post: Re: Add "hint text" to "select" field type in form?

That makes sense.  I've never had a problem with this functionality.

Hi all,

does this still work if youre hiding a select field with visibility rules? whenever i change the value from 'Select' to something different it just shows a blank field.

If you use VRs, you have to include all the possible values in the base list (i.e. the base list must be a superset of all the possible options in all the possible cases).
