Yes, that is <h:selectManyMenu /> The HTML control is:
<select size="5" multiple="true"> <option value="1">1</option> </select> the "size" tells the browser how many options should be visible at one time. So in this case, 5 will be displayed, and if there are more than 5, a scroll bar will be used. A combo box can only ever select one: <select> <option value="1">1</option> </select> A multiple select is always rendered as a list box (what you call looking like a text area) by browsers. The drop down box is only rendered if multiple is set to false (the default). The selectOneMenu and selectManyMenu JSF controls just render a SELECT element as shown above by default. You have to remember JSF controls are simply wrappers that create HTML code. If using the SELECT with multiple set to true, you can use the CSS height attribute to override the size to get the height that you want.
