Re: [las_users] dropdown menues

Joerg,

In LAS 6.x there is no way to have the select menus for depth or time 
submit a number that differs from the displayed number.  This feature of 
HTML <options> elements is one we have not made configurable in LAS.

One ugly workaround would be to hand edit the configuration file to 
contain the depth values you want and then associate an initialization 
script with this data that would regrid the native depths onto the 
depths defined in your configuration file.

I cannot recommend this hack but it would probably get you the behavior 
you want.
