[ic] accessories questions

How do I display color and size attributes after the user has selected
them?

By following the docs I can display a <SELECT> widget, but I can't
figure out how to display the selected value later on. What am I
missing?

My tshirts database looks like this:
-------------------

item	price	description	color	size
X-01_T-LOGO	14.99	Some description	Black-on-White, Black-on-Natural,
Black-on-Stone, Black-on-Khaki, Silver-on-Black, Orange-on-Black
X-Large, Large, Medium
X-02_T-IMAN	14.99	Some description	Black-on-White, Black-on-Natural,
Black-on-Stone, Black-on-Khaki, Silver-on-Black, Orange-on-Black
X-Large, Large, Medium

On my tshirts order page I have this loop (which generates one form for
each item the user can select, along with <SELECT> widgets for size and
color (seems to work):
----------------

[loop search="ra=yes/fi=tshirts/tf=description"]
<form name="results_[loop-increment]" action="[process-order]"
method="POST">
  <input type="hidden" name="mv_todo" value="refresh">
  <input type="hidden" name="mv_nextpage" value="ord/basket">

  <tr>
  <td align="center" bgcolor="#CCCC66"><input type="hidden" 
  name="mv_order_item" value="[loop-code]"><input type="image" 
  name="mv_order_item" alt="Submit" src=
  "buybtn.gif" border="0"></td>

  <td align="left" bgcolor="#CCCC66">[loop-field description]</td>

  <td align="center" bgcolor="#CCCC66">
  <!-- color SELECT widget -->
  [accessories code=[loop-code] attribute=color type=select column=color
table=tshirts name=color]
  </td>

  <td align="center" bgcolor="#CCCC66">
  <!-- size SELECT widget -->
  [accessories code=[loop-code] attribute=size type=select column=size
table=tshirts name=size]
  </td>

  </tr>
</form>
[/loop]
              
On my basket page, I am trying this (two approaches, neither works):
----------------

[item-list]
<tr>
<td>[item-code]</td>

<td>[item-field description]

<br>
<!-- this display nothing at all: -->
[item-modifier color][item-modifier size]
 
<br>
<!-- this display a SELECT widget: -->
[accessories code=[item-code] attribute=color type=display column=color
table=tshirts name=color]
[accessories code=[item-code] attribute=size type=display column=size
table=tshirts name=size]

</td>

</tr>
[/item-list]


Ideas?

TIA
