Can anyone explain this web page result with an Option Field
"Document Type" passes the option string information correctly "quote,order, invoice,etc"
"Allocation priority" should pass the option string "1,2,3"
It does not instead we get "_x0031_"
Thanks All

Probably because option values can also be set with a number indicating it's position within the list (0 being the first option) so maybe it does this to avoid conflicts.

It's sort of hexadecimally coded... x0031 means 31 in hex which is 3x16 + 1 = 49. 49 is the ascii value for the char "1"

thanks for the answer but why does it not give me the option string option - "1"?
Why am I getting hexidecimal?
