At one of my pages I have a listbox.
Now, this listbox says "Select Value".
I would like to have the listbox automatically select the first record in the row. Is this possible ?
I understand it is possible to go for the Default Value, but in my case the records in the listbox are user specific (different contents of the listbox for different users) and I don't see how to use a Default Value in this situation.

Simply open the HTML and remove the Select Value option to leave only
the dynamic options. Then it will list the first one based on the list
box's SQL.

I'm glad to help!
Note that a bug in all versions of CCS so far (I haven't tried v4.x yet)
make the Select Value option be marked as "selected" even when another
value is marked selected because it somehow hard-codes the "selected"
into it. In IE and several other browsers, this is not a problem because
they look for "selected" from the bottom up. However, Netscape and
Mozilla-based browsers look for it from the top down and always stop
when they find one that is marked as "selected" even when there is
another farther down in the list. If you don't notice it and you save
the data, anything that was previously selected for the field is wiped out!

Thanks DonP,
While working on this topic, I have another question. Is it possible to select the URL parameter in the Listbox ? For example, my URL is
listboxpage.php?option=test
and the selected option in the listbox will be "test"
My URL is
listboxpage.php?option=anothertest
and the selected option in the listbox will be "anothertest"
is this possible ? if so, how to do this ?

yes, you can do it. Use BeforeShow for that listbox. Put code like
$option=CCGetParam("option","");
$Component->SetValue($option);
