I'm wondering why Hierarchical Select isn't sufficient for your use case? Why did you decide to roll your own?

Same question here.

Thanks for taking a look at the module in it primitive state guys. The interface we require seems incompatible with Hierarchical Select. Hierarchical Select is geared to handle N-Tier hierarchies and would be limited by this interface unless there were tabs of tabs anyhow.

It is to be a simple interface aimed at helping users with simple taxonomies.

Hi, just wondering if you've seen the Better Select module? I haven't demo'd this code yet so I can't compare, but it sounds like it's the same.

Hi Mark,

Definitely share the same goals. Though its useful application is limited to 2-Level multiple selects, the desired interface was the issue here again.

I also updated the project page to try and help make the differences clear and draw attention to the mentioned modules. I'm sure once a screenshot and a demo are up, that will help as well. Any other suggestions would be appreciated.

Cheers!

Great! Thanks for your prompt responses and updates to clarify the differences :)

Oh, and you've got a very clear name now :)
