This component represents an html <select /> box. Use this component instead of the standard html one to leverage the layout and validation features of the fm:Form component.
As an added bonus the fm:Select box has a value attribute, which will be used to automatically set the correct selected="selected" attribute for the option component.
<fm:Form_Select name="agerange" value="31-40">
<fm:Form_Option value="11-20" label="11 - 20 years old">
<fm:Form_Option value="21-30" label="21 - 30 years old">
<fm:Form_Option value="31-40" label="31 - 40 years old">
</fm:Form_Select>
