Drop down list - Display only items

Is there a way to display read only values in a drop down listbox? Below is
an example of what I need displayed in the drop down list. The users should
only be able to select Item 1-9. Category A-C are just for
display/clarification purposes.

Category A
Item 1
Item 2
Item 3
Category B
Item 4
Item 5
Item 6
Category C
Item 7
Item 8
Item 9

Thanks.

Not without some clientside scripting (or posting back each time)....why
not put the Category A in the first item:
Category A Item 1
Item 2
Item 3

Hey there, I have been piecing this menu system together from a couple of different sources and can almost see the end the of the tunnel.

I am trying to incorporate a CSS drop-down menu into a site (suckerfish menu). The menu gets lost behind the content below it, but only on one of the drop downs (News). The error occurs on all of the browsers I have tested it on (IE6, IE7, Firefox, Opera and Safari). It is probably something simple, but I can't find it! Here is the CSS (using external style sheets): style-temp.css (Main style sheet for the site): * { font-family:...

Hello, I'm sure many of you have seen the error message in the subject. I found quiet a few posts on the web regarding this issue, but the ones I saw mainly tackle this issue when you have a drop-down list depending on another drop-down list within a form view. This is not what I'm trying to do, so I didn't know how to apply the solutions I found to my problem. I have a formview which inserts items into a database table via an

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
