Modern Combo Boxes

Stephen Chapman, the About.com JavaScript Guide, has written a great form script to create a drop-down menu out of a text field - a combo box. This form field is really useful if you want to provide specific answers for your most common answers, but also provide a text box for the less common answers. The example he gives is states in a country. In his form, if you're from Australia, you can choose your state from his drop-down menu, but if you're not from Oz, you can still write in your state (province) in the text field. A pretty cool and useful script.
