Adding a field to a cgi file	Can't Post

I need to add a line to a cgi file.
Here is an example from the file I need to add. I'm trying to add a "property tax" input field.

'10' => ['Property Address 1','AD2','nosearch','20', 'text','address 1', ]

My main question is regarding the "AD2", how do I make a parameter like this for "Property tax"?

Hope this makes sense.

Thanks Mark

Hi Mark,

What you posted here is a piece of a complex data structure. It appears to be a hash of annonymous arrays.

Just from what you posted there is no way to tell how to do what you are asking.
Here is my best guess though.
10 :is just and item number to be sorted on for displaying.
Property Address 1 :is what is displayed to the user outside the form field.
AD2 :I have no clue. Maybe the name of the field.
nosearch :again no clue.
20 :the size of the form field.
text the type of field
address 1 no clue.

You can try just adding anouther row to the hash. Make sure the key is unique.

Thanks,
The AD2 turned out just to be a unique name. I have it working now.
