Selection Lists |
Use multiple selection lists when the user can select more than one item on a list.
Openwave Multiple Selection List Guideline
■Create only one <do> element or <do type="accept"> label, using five characters or fewer for the multiple selection list.
Only one label is displayed; the second label is reserved for the device.

<select name="recip" multiple="true"> <option value="bbrown">Bob Brown</option>
<option value="aclemson">Angelica Clemson</option> <option value="dbigelow">Dirk Bigelow</option> <option value="gkinser">Gary Kinser</option> <option value="jlingle">Jeff Lingle</option>
</select>
Example
■Do not use <option onpick = href> for items on the selection list.
Using <option onpick> does allow the user to select the item but may automatically display the next URL.
