I am looking at a way to display drop down list in a hierarchical format and allow the user to pick a leaf node as a valid entry. It is not necessary to have the nodes expandable or collapsible, but it will help the user to navigate easily through several hundreds of entries in the list.
For example: When the user wants to select a product, the drop down list should appear as follows:
Cat A
|-----Cat AA
|----Cat AAA
|---PROD A1
|---PROD A2
|
Cat B
|-----Cat BB
|----Cat BBB
|---PROD B1
|---PROD B2
The standard drop down supports a list format so hierarchical or Tree view is out of question. Has anyone in the forum tried this before? Any pointers will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Webdog
