CALL INFORMATION
  Parameters: name value multiple

  Positional parameters in same order.

  Pass attribute hash as last to subroutine: no

  Must pass named parameter interpolate=1 to cause interpolation.

  Invalidates cache: YES

  Called Routine:

  ASP/perl tag calls:

          $Tag->selected(
              {
               name => VALUE,
               value => VALUE,
               multiple => VALUE,
              }
          )

       OR

          $Tag->selected($name, $value, $multiple);

DESCRIPTION
  You can provide a ``memory'' for drop-down menus, radio buttons, and checkboxes with the [checked] and [selected] tags.

  This will output SELECTED if the variable `var_name` is equal to value. If the optional MULTIPLE argument is present, it will look for any of a variety of values. Not case sensitive.

  Here is a drop-down menu that remembers an item-modifier color selection:

          <SELECT NAME="color">
          <OPTION [selected color blue]> Blue
          <OPTION [selected color green]> Green
          <OPTION [selected color red]> Red
          </SELECT>

  Here is the same thing, but for a shopping-basket color selection

          <SELECT NAME="[modifier-name color]">
          <OPTION [selected [modifier-name color] blue]> Blue
          <OPTION [selected [modifier-name color] green]> Green
          <OPTION [selected [modifier-name color] red]> Red
          </SELECT>
