Default <select> - 06-18-2005 , 07:26 PM







Using the <select name="interest" multiple size="3" tabindex="14">
with several options, I don't get the selecting of more
than one option without holding down the ctrl key.
Ther is another way to do this with the options changing color and all
the options selected are that color, WHO??

SER,

You probably don't. This depends on the browser you use, and most
browsers have a lousy implementation of select elements, especially
when the multiple attribute is present.

Qestion parse not does, GET??

Try taking some time to formulate your question in normal English
in future. Thank you.

Anyway, drop tabindex (if you "need" it, your form needs a rewrite to
be accessible and useable), and use a set of checkboxes instead of
<select ... multiple ...>
