How can I type in the combo box <select> ?In VB if I use a ComboBox with Style = 0 - Dropdown Combo, besides selecting
an item from the drop down box, I can also type in the combobox. In ASP, when I use <select>, is it possible to type in the combox box ? Thank you. <select name="S1"></select> <script language="JavaScript"> var oOption = document.createElement("OPTION"); oOption.text="one" document.all.item("S1").add(oOption); </script> fniles wrote on 16 jun 2009 in microsoft.public.inetserver.asp.general:

You could go to comp.languages.javascript or comp.infosystems.www.authoring.html, but the real answer to your question is that you just can't do that. The select element only allows option elements, and the option element cannot receive input from the client. -- Adrienne Boswell at Home Arbpen Web Site Design Services http://www.cavalcade-of-coding.info Please respond to the group so others can share Adrienne Boswell <arb***@yahoo.com> wrote:

In fact, I would be shocked if code to do this is not easily findable via a google search. Of course, such an approach would require some browser-sniffing to make sure the browser settings/capabilities support the functionality of the solution. -- HTH, Bob Barrows Gazing into my crystal ball I observed "Bob Barrows" <reb01501

I'm surprised that this isn't something that hasn't been brought into the specs. Especially since one can do select multiple, why not select with input?

The select element only allows option elements, and the option element cannot receive input from the client." So, no, it cannot be done, at least not without some client side script (as Bob mentioned earlier in this thread), with HTML. Again, this is all client side, client side, client side. -- Adrienne Boswell at Home Arbpen Web Site Design Services http://www.cavalcade-of-coding.info Please respond to the group so others can share
