Hi there,
I've seen a few posts (and searched in-between the gaps) but I can't seem to get my head around using non-required attributes for products.
I understand that when you set them to required it adds "Please select" as the top option to a select box and flags it as required to the system which works great. But I have attributes in a select box that are not required, yet I need to add an option of "blank" or similar otherwise the user is forced to choose one (as natural select boxes work that way).
So I guess my question is; how, or what do I need to do to enable a "please select" option in my select boxes that allows the user to keep that option selected and does not add itself to the cart.
I have manually added "Please select" / "None" etc as options and of course they get added to the basket. As most sales would be made with out options I really don't want to fill my reports and peoples baskets with:
- Product 1
-- Option 1: None
-- Option 2: None
Hope this is making sense 
I'm hoping I've missed something obvious (would have to on my first post) but the select boxes do seem to force a select by their very nature (and radios for that matter).
I am just about to finish my first Ubercart based store using UC v.1 and this should get it ready to go so any help would be greatly received.
Thanks all
