Thanks for your replies, overwriting the choices seems to work, but is
making the code somewhat unreadable, because i need to do this for a
number of form fields. The drop down list that worries me the most has
approx. 600 entries, but there 2 or 3 other fields that have a lot of
entries too. I know that this isn't user friendly at all, but it's an
administration form, so this should be ok for the people using it.
I will look into a client side solution to the problem, because even
if the large queries are cached there is still the problem of the
giant html file that is generated (imagine 50 drop down list with 600
<option> tags each ;-)).
I'll try to implement the functionality in javascript to clone the
options for all fields.

thanks again for the suggestions,
sean
