    maybe you could show us your pickselected() function and also what is in array $v and how is it set?

    Whats being output to the browser? Does your select element get populated with options?

    very difficult to see whats going on with the code you have posted.

    sorry cant help more...

    $v is set like this:
    foreach($_REQUEST as $key=>$val) {
    $v[$key]=$val;

    the output is fine, the select box is populated correctly.I'll highlight the parts that are relevant to my question.

    As far as i know the bold parts are the relevant bits. The bold line if(isset($v)){ isn't being executed, so obviously $customer_id2 isn't being set. That make more sense?

    where did you set $customer_id2?

    should this be $v?

    <input type=hidden name=customer_id2 value="<?=$v?>">

    I think this is the problem.

    i beleive that the pickselected() function has the <option value='your value'>your value</option> inside.
    show us the html of the form.

    That is the html of the form, thats the whole page...

    Here's the pickselected() funtion:
    function pickselected($textIn,$selected){

    if($selected==="") {
    return $textIn;
    }
    else
    {

    $t=$textIn;
    $t = str_replace("value=\"{$selected}\"","value=\"{$selected}\" selected",$t);
    $t = str_replace("value='{$selected}'","value=\"{$selected}\" selected",$t);
    if($selected!="")
    $t = str_replace("value={$selected}","value=\"{$selected}\" selected",$t);
    return $t;
    }
    }

    Try this in your code:
    <?php 
    $x_CustomerID = $_POST['customer_id2'];
    if (!(!is_null($x_CustomerID)) || ($x_CustomerID == "")) { $x_CustomerID = "setdefaultvalue_here";} // Set default value ?>
    <?php
    $x_CustomerIDList = "<select name=\"Customer_ID2\">";
    $x_CustomerIDList .= "<option value=''>Please Select</option>";
    $SQL = "SELECT * FROM `tbl_customer` WHERE `customer_deleted` <> 1 AND `customer_id` <>'".$v['customer_id']."' ORDER BY `customer_name`";
    $_result = mysql_query($SQL) or die("Query failed : " . mysql_error());
    //mysql_query($SQL) or die("Query failed : " . mysql_error());
    
    if ($_result) {
    	$rowcntwrk = 0;
    	while ($datawrk = mysql_fetch_array($_result)) {
    		$x_CustomerIDList .= "<option value=\"" . htmlspecialchars($datawrk[0]) . "\"";
    		if ($datawrk["customer_id"] == @$x_CustomerID) {
    			$x_CustomerIDList .= "' selected";
    		}
    		$x_CustomerIDList .= ">" . $datawrk["customer_id"] . "</option>";
    		$rowcntwrk++;
    	}
    }
    @mysql_free_result($_result);
    $x_CustomerIDList .= "</select>";
    echo $x_CustomerIDList;
    ?>
    

    also you have 2 fields in your form named customer_id2
    <input type=hidden name=customer_id2 value="<?=$customer_id2?>">

    That is the html of the form, thats the whole page...

    Here's the pickselected() funtion:

    function pickselected($textIn, $selected = null){
    return (!$selected || $selected == '') ? str_replace("value=\"{$selected}\"", "value=\"{$selected}\" selected", $textIn) : $textIn;
    }

    Not sure that this will fix it but certain that what you had previously was actually replacing value=\"{$selected}\" 3 times. Try it and if it doesn't work post the source of the html page that your function is parsing. I think it might contain some errors based on your pickselected script.
