I would like to use the category field for something else. I would like to use it for Company Name instead. I support several different companies and this would be helpful. I added the different company names to the category list. I am trying to pass the category as a hidden field but it does not seem to be working. Is there an easy way to do this?

Thanks.....I saw that post prior to my question. It adds the fields to the form and e-mail but doesn't add them to the database. (if I understand it correctly) I would really like to have this in the database. I really don't need the category field so I was thinking I could use it for something else. I was able to modify the category field to use it as I would like to. (company name) I guess the problem I am having is that I would rather have it passed as a hidden form field instead of a select box. Is there an easy way to do this?

I tried modifying the HTML code to use this:
<input name="category" type="hidden" value="Company_Name" />
instead of the Select Box. However, it always seems to use whatever category is set as the default.

I figured this out. I was passing the wrong variable. I changed it to pass the row ID instead and it works just fine. Thank you for your assiatance and a great script.
