    The strangest thing has been happening. I have entered a list of drop down items and one entry, for some reason, is gaining a quoation mark(“). It is the only entry in the list which it happens to. I have tried many things to alleviate the issue, but to no avail.

    On the contact form 7 page, I have this entered:
    [select “Brampton – 25 Kings Cross Road|Bramalea <email@email.com>” “etc. . .” ]

    This is what it looks like on the web site:
    “Brampton – 25 Kings Cross Road

    And this is what the code looks like when checked with firebug:
    <option value=""Brampton - 25 Kings Cross Road">"Brampton - 25 Kings Cross Road</option>

    So the ” is getting added into the value tag, I just don’t know why, or how to fix it. I have searched the forum for a similar circumstance, but haven’t found the issue replicated.

    Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

    You need name of the select tag like this:
    [select your-country "China" "India" "San Marino"]

    Takayuki, thank you for your response, but I have included the name, which is clinic.I just forgot to add it in the original post. So this is what I have entered on the contact form 7 page:

    [select clinic “Brampton – 25 Kings Cross Road|Bramalea <email@email.com>” “etc. . .” ]

    Here is the site with the issue:

    http://www.physiomed.ca/weight-loss-challenge/

    As you can see the other clinics in the list don’t have the issue, it is only Brampton. I have tried everything. If I take the line, “Brampton – 25 Kings Cross Road|Bramalea <email@email.com>” out the list is fine and the extra quotes aren’t added. I have uninstalled the plug-in and re-installed, and set up the form from scratch, but the problem persists. I have used your form many times and have never had this issue. Please let me know if you have any other suggestions. Thank you very much.

    This has been semi-resolved.

    I have eliminated the clinic name Bramalea, thus eliminating the <> from the email address as well. There was a conflict with the pipe | and the <> in just that particular case. All other selections in the list work fine with that set-up, which is curious that this instance was gaining the extra “. Anyway, thanks for the awesome work you have done Takayuki! Can’t thank you enough.
