I am working on an old classic asp purchasing system which has a header and lines screen.
On the lines screen there are a number of drop down lists <select> items. They have close to a thousand <options> within them and there could be 20 lines.
This leads to a considerable ammount of HTML.
Is it possible to reuse the source of one element. I.e popup the same list everytime.
Ideally I would creaet a select with just one option, they current selected value held in the database. When the user clicks the select the rest of the items are added to the list dynamically.
can that be done?

HTML/CSS can't do this, JavaScript or PHP would be the way to go.
Thanks, Death
Can I just use an array and the items?
Or alternatively
Cant I just set up a div tag, output the contents of the select into there and change its location as and when the user clicks an item?

Ask in the JavaScript forum.
