I've got sort of an odd one here. I'm populating a select drop down box
with a substantial number of options - actually every county in the
U.S.- which is about 3000 results from a query. The problem is that
when I load the page, there are all kinds of weird problems, characters,
you name it. I'm wondering if theres's a limit to how many options I
can have in a select drop down box?
This is a browser issue. Having too many form elements in any(?) browser
creates problems -- Mozilla, IE, Opera all exhibit this problem (under
Windows at least). Can't you split your select box to some manageable
proportions? Select state first, then show the list of counties within that
state?
