[Select Payment] radio button change to dropdown and insert in cart page

[rzrz]

#1 Currently my payment methods are in radio buttons, I wondered how to change to dropdown?

This is my current code:

Code Select Expand


echo "<fieldset>"; // <fieldset>should change to <select>
foreach ($this->paymentplugins_payments as $paymentplugin_payments) {
    if (is_array($paymentplugin_payments)) {
foreach ($paymentplugin_payments as $paymentplugin_payment) {
    echo $paymentplugin_payment.'<br />';
}
    }
}
    echo "</fieldset>";


#2 On the cart page its currently display as a link [select payment] and will direct to another page to select in radio buttons. I wondered how to insert the dropdown select payment directly into cart page?

I would be happy if I could change the list to a drop down list.  I use the off-line credit card extension and people put in their information and neglect to select the radio  button for credit card.  When they hit save the information is cleared and the page is reloaded.  It is frustrating and apparently the text "select your payment method" doesn't help them.  They think typing their card information in does that......

Successfully changed to select dropdown, but still finding the ways to put it directly on cart page....
