How do I show entered values in a character sheet in a subsequent ?

hi I have a table in my charactersheet that people add their weapons in along with their assocated stats. In another part of the character sheet I would like to use these enered values in the sheet. Here is what I am trying to do: in the character sheet there is a textfield like so: <input type="text" name="attr_w1name" class="sheet-four"> <input type="text" name="attr_w2name" class="sheet-four"> <input type="text" name="attr_w3name" class="sheet-four"> <input type="text" name="attr_w4name" class="sheet-four"> In another part of the character sheet I would like to use the text entered in this input like so: <select name="attr_wepsel" class="sheet-four">                         <option value="1">"@{w1name}"</option>                         <option value="2">"@{w2name}"</option>                         <option value="3">"@{w3name}"</option>                         <option value="4">"@{w4name}"</option> </select> However the select button shows the actual code and not the reference. What piece of wizardry am I missing? Thanks

When you tell one input (Call it Input-A) to draw from that other input (Input-B) or this other input (Input-C), the program draws the value.  So, you would need to make the value of the select options "@{w1name}", and change the other parts to something else. For example: <select name="attr_wepsel" class="sheet-four">                         <option value="@{w1name}">Primary Weapon</option>                         <option value="@{w2name}">Secondary Weapon</option>                         <option value="@{w3name}">Back-Up Weapon</option>                         <option value="@{w4name}">Back-Up to the Back-Up</option> </select>

CPP is correct on how to get the input values as the  values  for the options. However, there is no way to get the input values as the labels  for the options.
