For the form I need to create drop down select with say five different
options. There also should be possibility to enter own option if one is not
listed. How can I do it.?

This could be construed as an HTML-only question, in which case you are in the
wrong group. Or it could be PHP, but you have not provided us an example of your
attempt at resolving the problem. The web is repleat with example code, this
news group is repleat with example code... so, in this case, I am going to refer
you to 2 resources. Google and << http://www.php.net/en/manual/ >>
If you haven't thought to use either of these 2 resources, I would give serious
reconsideration in continuing in this line of work.

Nanos, I have not seen drop down menus and an optional entry combined.
What I have seen is a drop down menu, and a text box for different
entries. Search on google for "drop down menu" and also for "text
box". You need to create basic drop down menus using html, and then
learn how to use php to dynamically generate them and then how to
process the resulting user input.

Thank you Steve,
I found some solution - but it is not to elegant. I remember that you
could do it in ColdFusion so I thought that there is some trick also
available in PHP. I know how to create drop down menus and dynamically
populate them from DB - have several production sites running. But looks
like I need to look for different solution - like adding own option through
admin interface.
Thank you anyway for your answer,
Emanuel

Michael,
I know how to look in Google and I know where to find PHP manual. I think
that I described my problem clearly and I know I am in right group. If you
would use Google you would see that there were similar questions asked but
the solutions were not to elegant.
So, I am in right group becouse you can not do it in HTML. And what example
code you need to see (any HTML manual has an example of forms/drop down
boxes listed)?
Looks like you did not understand my questions. But thank you anyway for
great hints :)

Hi,
On an ASP.NET page I have a drop down list control. When the user pulls

validation fails I want the selected item in the drop down box to go back to
