CForm field selection-list: "displayed" vs. "selected" values

Hi,

what's the best way to map the values selectable by a user in a 
selection-list to other values (e.g. in selection-list we have 
"human-readable" values, we want to map them to "internal" values)?

Thanks in advance.
Cheers

Jason, thank you very much for your quick reply. It solved the problem. I 
will try out the other possibility too (using the flow-attr: module). 

I felt my first message was too long and not to-the-point, so I sent 
another request. Your response to my first thread arrived seconds after 
that.

Regards
José Diaz Seng

See my reply to your previous thread; you use the "internal" value as 
the @value of fd:item, and the "human-readable" value as an fd:label.

<fd:selection-list>
   <fd:item value="MT935">
     <fd:label>Monthly Interest Sales</fd:label>
   </fd:item>
   <fd:item value="MT950MS">
     <fd:label>Money Statement</fd:label>
   </fd:item>
</fd:selection-list>
