I believe what he wants is a size="2" combobox with options listed
with full names, which is emulated by what I posted (more or less
given styling differences per browser).
Yes, that is what I want. But, since I need 4 of these <select>
comboboxes underneath each other in a vertical column, I need to think of
some efficient means of just using one set of select options (i.e., fifty
U.S. States, and ten provinces.)
Now, I'm beginning to think, that I should leave the four 2-char <text>
fields in place, and when focus is on any of them, I should have some way
for the user to activate a 'click' event to bring up a single <select>
element and its 60-odd options. Hmmmm ...
Again, Michael has given me a solution, but I'm still puzzling over how
to make it more efficient and less obtrusive.
btw, I think I might place my page on one of my web sites for you folks
to look at to give you a better perspective.
Going golfing now -- but thinking about this :)))
Thank y'all.
