I've got this combination running on my site and prepopulate works for other node fields, but I've tried different ways of referencing the CCK fields in the documentation and in other posts but I've had no luck.

This is the field I'm trying to prepopulate:

<div class="form-item" id="edit-field-desc-0-value-wrapper">

 <label for="edit-field-desc-0-value">Description: </label>

 <textarea cols="60" rows="3" name="field_desc[0][value]" id="edit-field-desc-0-value"  class="form-textarea resizable"></textarea>

 <div class="description">A brief description of the website.</div>

</div>

It's part of a content type called links. So according to all the docs I've read, the url should be

/node/add/content?edit[field_desc][0][value]=Description

since I am using clean urls, but this doesn't work, and trying similar things for other CCK fields on that page doesn't work either. None of them are in groups.

Any ideas?

Trying to use CCK + Prepopulate on d6, and I am also running into the very same problem with the CCK Link field. Also noticed that [body_filter][body] doesn't work as advertised in my install. Any updates on this?

prepopulate [body_filter][body] not working for default node type in D6

title and url work great, but &edit[body_filter][body] (or just [body]) do not work.

any clues would be greatly appreciated.
thanks

say I have a form with the following:

<select name="field_classified_cat[value]" class="form-select required" id="edit-field-classified-cat-value" >
<option value="" selected="selected"></option>
<option value="209">Products</option>
<option value="208">Projects</option>
<option value="210">Services</option>
</select>

this is what doesn't work:

http://www.example.com/node/add/classified?edit[field_classified_cat][value]=208

only ?edit[title]=whatever seems to work.
