[support] trying to use php to create multi-lingual CCK select lists

[Neil: esl-lounge.com]

How can I use the t function to translate? If I put them into the Allowed 
Values field, they show up in the drop down. I tried it with one and my drop 
down became

<?php print t('Collecting') ?>
Watching TV
Family activites
Fishing

How can I use t strings in CCK fields without them showing up?

thanks

Neil
