trdfnt = Buying
trdfnt = Selling
trdfnt = Trading
However it won't search for all 3, it will just do the first one. I got around this by just creating another custom thread field, making it required, and only providing 1 option. So it is selected no matter what. Then I just set default for that.

Oh, in that case

Code:

trdfnt[] = Buying trdfnt[] = Selling trdfnt[] = Trading

It's in the example text, but I suppose it isn't that clear.

Would be something like,
foreach (categoryname in the database)
echo "html formatting"

Would it be fine or would it be to much server load since it would be running each time someone refreshes the market page?

I probably wouldn't stick it in the database, but if you're using PHP in Templates, you could just simply assign a variable with the list and use your foreach idea for the rest.

PHP Code:

$categories = array('Buy', 'Sell', 'Trade', 'Stolen'); // ... foreach($categories as $category) echo '<tr><td>'.htmlspecialchars($category).'</td></tr>';
