Select Lists Pre-Populate?

My form is set up to pre-populate lead data. Our company size field is set up to display as a select list of employee number ranges, but then converts that range to an integer (the field type).

Going back to the form, the existing data in the field populates as an option from the select list on future views of the landing page and defaults as the choice.

For example, there is a list of ranges and then "150" at the end (the existing data).

How do I prevent this from happening? Marketo should not be pre-populating select lists!

That is a result of pre-populating the fields. The way around this would be to have a 'vanity' field that would show the ranges you want, and then a real field that would have your converted integers in it.

If you have the same field that you are writing integers to and displaying on your form, it will continue to show whatever value you put in there.

Hope that helps!
