Simple approach: You could use PHP to retrieve the allowed values
from the current user's profile. Place that PHP code in the allowed
values field of the content type.<br>
<br>
If the user changes her favorite colors and then edits an existing
node, it may cause loss of data (if that node had a color that was
removed from their favorites, and hence is no longer a valid
selection). You'll have to decide what to do in that and similar
corner cases.<br>

<div><br>
</div>
<div>On a site I am working on I have a field on the user profile
that users complete when registering that can have one or more
values entered.. Lets says its a "favourite colours"..</div>
<div>
<br>
</div>
<div>I now want to create a content type that users can create
that uses those entries to present a selection to the user (drop
down, multi-select, etc.).. So in other words for the
"favourite colours" field on the new content creation page they
only have the choices of the colours they have saved in their
profile in the "favourite colours" field..</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Hopefully that makes sense.. :)</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Anyone have any idea how to do it?</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>TIA</div>
