I'd start at the following subroutine;



  sub show_bits
    {
    my( $actbits ) = ( ( $_[0] < 8 ) ? 24 : $_[0] );
    my( $html ) = "";
 
    for( $_=8; $_<=30; $_++ )
        {
        my $selflag = ( $_ == $actbits ? " selected" : "" );
        $html .= "<option value=$_ $selflag>$_\n";
        }
    return $html;
    }

in /usr/admserv/cgi-bin/.cobalt/dns/index.cgi
