the tal:omit-tag is worthless.  it needs to be "string:1" or  
something that will evaluate to true.  that will never pass.

This section is weird.  Why put the selected item in the dropdown 2x?

you might be better off doing something like this:

> <option value="0" tal:attributes="selected productdetail/ 
> productdiscounted/0">No</option>
> <option value="1" tal:attributes="selected productdetail/ 
> productdiscounted/1">Yes</option>

then just pass to TAL a datastructure like this
	productdetail=>
		productdiscounted=>
			$selected_item=> 'selected'
	
you could also loop it

> <option tal:repeat="product productdetail" tal:attributes="value  
> product/value ; selected product/selected" tal:content="product/ 
> as_text">No</option>

	productdetail=>
		0=>
			value => 99
			selected => undef
			as_text=> No
		1=>
			value => 98
			selected => selected
			as_text=> Yes

both of those ways will work in more tal implementations that using a  
php block.
