Hi all

I'm looking for a CCK combo box. I noticed this post in the module development forums, but I guess I'm so surprised that one hasn't been done that I just wanted to double check. So, does anyone know of a CCK widget that lets you either select from a list or enter into a textfield the value for a single text field? It doesn't have to be a traditional combo box widget, it could also be a select list and entirely separate textfield, as long as there is only one underlying CCK field.

TIA

Have you looked at Explain Field?

Thanks (again!) nevets, I hadn't no. It looks like the right thing, though unfortunately not stable yet for 6.x.

I would still try it out, my guess is it works and they have just not made a official release.

I definitely will, but first I'll leave it as a textfield until the rest of my site's finished, then experiment. I'll report back here...

(I know it's not what you're looking for, but a textfield with autocomplete is another solution for the meantime.)
