[ic] Value not updating

[Jon Jensen]

Mihai,

If I understand you correctly, you want [value account_code] to contain 
the selected account_code submitting in the form previously?

If so, you can use [cgi account_code] to get the form submission on the 
immediate next page only, or place [update values] earlier on the page 
which will copy account_code from cgi to values space. (But which may have 
other effects you don't want, so would need careful testing.)

However, when I submit the form, the value being passed through "cc_code" is the value found on page load, not the one selected through the <option>. In other words, selecting an option does not change or update the value of "account_code" when submitting the form.
