Hi David,

Unfortunately you won't be able to limit this dropdown list.

I've searched for references on how to do it but wasn't able to find anything specifically for the dropdown options.

Thanks,
Shane

Hi Shane,
found this:
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/8788245/how-can-i-limit-the-visible-options-in-an-html-select-dropdown

Is this something I can use? Where would I put the onmousedown code?

Thanks

Hi david,

It is not an elegant solution but you can do it like this based on the code you've sent.

jQuery('select').attr("onmousedown","if(this.options.length>8){this.size=8;}");

Thanks Shane,
I've inserted

jQuery('select').attr("onmousedown","if(this.options.length>8){this.size=8;}");

into the JS Editor section, which results in attached image.
Is there any way to add all of the snippet from the example

onmousedown="if(this.options.length>8){this.size=8;}"  onchange='this.size=0;' onblur="this.size=0;">

So that onchange or onblur the list dropdown closes.

Thanks

Hi Shane,
Problem solved added to JSEditor

jQuery('select').attr("onmousedown","if(this.options.length>8){this.size=8;}");
jQuery('select').attr("onchange","this.size=0");
jQuery('select').attr("onblur","this.size=0");

Thanks for your help, couldn't have done it without you.
David
