Have you tried pulling the file that your menu reads from into an
unlimited length, display only field and then using string functions
(such as STRSTR) to find if the value entered is in the list?
If that doesn't work maybe a run process utilizing grep or find?

Re: how to read the whole content of a drop-down menu
I just tried with $MENU$ and the browser (because it has to be on the
web) returns $MENU$ in the field.
I checked afterwards in the Admin tool. It has corrected $MENU$ for
"$MENU$"
Another idea ?
