SV: Re: Hiding Options in Select

Hi David,

you could always simulate the option-selector by using a layer containing
what you want.
When the user click your "selector"-image/button the layer is revealed below
the button.
The options could be populated as div's or as li's (ala dropdown menus).
This should work
with all browsers. Just my 5 cents.

mvh / Kind regards,
