Well, when I use values instead of keys, I get this(not an actual error):

<select name="change_max" class="formfield" onchange="window.location=
+(document.max.change_max.value)">
<option  value="1">1</option>
<option  value="10">10</option>
<option  value="100">100</option>
<option  value="15">15</option>
<option  value="20">20</option>
<option  value="200">200</option>
<option selected value="25">25</option>
<option  value="300">300</option>
<option  value="35">35</option>
<option  value="400">400</option>
<option  value="5">5</option>
<option  value="50">50</option>
<option  value="500">500</option>
<option  value="75">75</option>
</select>

That is not correct. Here is the way the values should be instead of the numbers:

<select name="change_max" class="formfield" onchange="window.location=
+(document.max.change_max.value)">
<option  value="http://www.ourgiftcottage.com/index.cgi?pg=admin_main;
+load=edit_items;l=0;max=1">1</option>
<option  value="http://www.ourgiftcottage.com/index.cgi?pg=admin_main;
+load=edit_items;l=0;max=10">10</option>
<option  value="http://www.ourgiftcottage.com/index.cgi?pg=admin_main;
+load=edit_items;l=0;max=100">100</option>
<option  value="http://www.ourgiftcottage.com/index.cgi?pg=admin_main;
+load=edit_items;l=0;max=15">15</option>
<option  value="http://www.ourgiftcottage.com/index.cgi?pg=admin_main;
+load=edit_items;l=0;max=20">20</option>
<option  value="http://www.ourgiftcottage.com/index.cgi?pg=admin_main;
+load=edit_items;l=0;max=200">200</option>
<option  value="http://www.ourgiftcottage.com/index.cgi?pg=admin_main;
+load=edit_items;l=0;max=25">25</option>
<option  value="http://www.ourgiftcottage.com/index.cgi?pg=admin_main;
+load=edit_items;l=0;max=300">300</option>
<option  value="http://www.ourgiftcottage.com/index.cgi?pg=admin_main;
+load=edit_items;l=0;max=35">35</option>
<option  value="http://www.ourgiftcottage.com/index.cgi?pg=admin_main;

<option  value="http://www.ourgiftcottage.com/index.cgi?pg=admin_main;

<option  value="http://www.ourgiftcottage.com/index.cgi?pg=admin_main;

But that is not in the correct order(I used keys).
Even when I use values instead of keys, It's not in the order I would like...
I want it in order 1-500.

Any Easy way to do that, here is my method:

%max_go_array = (
"$url?pg=$in{pg};load=$in{load};l=$in{l};max=1$include_sess_id" => "1"
+,
"$url?pg=$in{pg};load=$in{load};l=$in{l};max=5$include_sess_id" => "5"
+,
"$url?pg=$in{pg};load=$in{load};l=$in{l};max=10$include_sess_id" => "1
+0",
"$url?pg=$in{pg};load=$in{load};l=$in{l};max=15$include_sess_id" => "1
+5",
"$url?pg=$in{pg};load=$in{load};l=$in{l};max=20$include_sess_id" => "2
+0",
"$url?pg=$in{pg};load=$in{load};l=$in{l};max=25$include_sess_id" => "2
+5",
"$url?pg=$in{pg};load=$in{load};l=$in{l};max=35$include_sess_id" => "3
+5",
"$url?pg=$in{pg};load=$in{load};l=$in{l};max=50$include_sess_id" => "5
+0",
"$url?pg=$in{pg};load=$in{load};l=$in{l};max=75$include_sess_id" => "7
+5",
"$url?pg=$in{pg};load=$in{load};l=$in{l};max=100$include_sess_id" => "
+100",
"$url?pg=$in{pg};load=$in{load};l=$in{l};max=200$include_sess_id" => "
+200",
"$url?pg=$in{pg};load=$in{load};l=$in{l};max=300$include_sess_id" => "
+300",
"$url?pg=$in{pg};load=$in{load};l=$in{l};max=400$include_sess_id" => "
+400",
"$url?pg=$in{pg};load=$in{load};l=$in{l};max=500$include_sess_id" => "
+500"
);

$change_max .= popup_menu(-name=>"change_max",
-class=>"formfield",
-values=> [sort {$a cmp $b} keys %max_go_array],
-labels=> \%max_go_array,
-class=>"formfield",
-default=>$maxlimit_display,
-onchange=>"window.location=(document.max.change_max.value)"
);

I would appreciate any advice to help me out...( I'm building this site for my Wife;o) )
I want it to create the popup_menu in the order the array is listed.

thx,
Richard
