What is the NAME in an HTML SELECT tag?

by john.a.wills . Updated 14 years, 10 months ago

I have a PL/SQL procedure which is correctly sending the selected item in a pull-down list to another procedure, but I do not understand how the first procedure is working. To create the SELECT tag I have
htp.formselectopen(‘subject’, ‘Subject: ‘, nsize =>1 );
I have no variable subject in the procedure or in the package variables. I do have a variable subj in the procedure, to which nothing is obviously assigned, but which via
htp.formhidden(‘subject’, subj);
does pass the selected value along. Can it be that my name is getting truncated? Or… what?
