Hi,

I am building up a popup_menu and I would like to add an ID and an onChange attribute to the to the <select> tag.

I initially thought I could use the -attribute option but i then realised that it is designed for the various <option> tags and not the select. Is there a way to use the attributed option on the <select> tag? So far i have the below: 
 my %attributes = ( 'onChange' => 'displaydbfields(' . $n . ')',  
                   'id' =>  'coltype' . $n,                           
+         
                            );


my $v = popup_menu  (
                -name => 'type',
                -values => \@COLUMN_TYPES,
                -default => $col->{type},
                -attributes=> \%attributes,
              );
