Hey Greg,

Nice work getting the 6.x version up. Could you consider changing the multi-select box for the content type to just a checkbox list? This would be easier to select than the multi-select and holding down CTRL.

You could add a JavaScript link above or below for "select all" and "deselect all".

Just a thought.

Al,

I do remember reading that the user-interface friendly way is as you describe, which is similar to the way that the core does it for taxonomy picking of node types. I may not have the time to refactor this at present, but am leaving open for sure in hopes that it can get done.

There is a module named betterselect (http://drupal.org/project/betterselect) that does exactly what you want: it replaces multiselect box by separate checkboxes for each entry. (I like it much better than multiselect fields, too)

The patch in #547650: Coding standards does this. It also turns the interval choices into radios. It's much cleaner looking, IMHO. I will be porting it to 6.x.
