I have the same problem. I have tried everything I can think of.. Bind
to a hidden field with the ID of the dropdown value then use the
onChange to call a javascript function that will select the item in
the drop down. to no avail. seems to be a core aspect of web
application development that is missing from cf8 bind cfselect and the
new ajax features. any help or hacks would be appreciated.

i found the answer. bind the value to a hidden field that calls a
javascript function that accepts two parameters the id of the cfselect
and gridValue the place this javascript function in the head of your
document and you should be creating sweet edit ajax forms in no time
that utilize cfselects with dropdowns populated from lookup tables

<script type='text/javascript'>
var hasRun = false;
function selectDropDown(x,val) {
if(!hasRun) {
var dd = document.getElementById(x);
for(var i = 0; i < dd.length; i++){
if(dd.options[i].value == val){
dd.selectedIndex = i;
}
}
}
hasRun = true;
}
</script>

<cfinput type="hidden" name="categoryHiddenBind" value=""
bind="javascript:selectDropDown('ComponentCatID',
{grid.ComponentCatID})">
*Category:
<cfselect query="queryName" name="CategoryID"
display="CategoryName" value="CategoryID" queryPosition="below">
<option value="0">-- Select a Category -- </option>
</cfselect>

hope this helps i spent forever trying to figure this out. pass it on
cause this seems to be lacking out of the box with cf8 and ajax
features
