Hi,
Thanks a lot for this very useful module.
We need it exactly for this: "Can be used along with Content Taxonomy module for allowing easy selection from a long list of taxonomy terms." We did install and configure both: Multiselect and Content Taxonomy as per readme.txt. Two issues:
1) it is probably 99% issue with Content Taxonomy, but as it effects core functionality of Multiselect I'm adding it here - field is not populated from existing taxonomy, e.g. two terms/kewords are already selected for this particular node: "home care" and "older adults", but Multiselect "Selected Options:" list is empty - please see image attached;
2) when mouse is hovered over as I want to choose value, parts of the form disappear - please see image attached. This makes Multiselect completely unusable.

Thanks,
Gennady

Here is an answer to the 1st bug that belongs to the Content Taxonomy module:
http://drupal.org/node/485328
Dear developers for Multiselect, please add info/note about this until the issue will be fixed right where it says "Can be used along with Content Taxonomy module for allowing easy selection from a long list of taxonomy terms." and inside readme file. It will save lots of time to all of us :)
Thanks a lot.

And the 2nd problem was the CSS formatting obviously. After adding this into "multiselect.css" everything is now OK:

.multiselect .form-item{
  float: left;
}
.multiselect:after {
    content: ".";
    display: block;
    height: 0;
    clear: both;
    visibility: hidden;
}
 

Thank you!

Also even field is not populated from existing taxonomy, all old nodes still have all the terms assigned and the new ones have terms entered with Multiselect. So at least everything works.
The only problem when you need to update terms for the node - then all of them need to be selected again using Multiselect. Both selections for older nodes could be synchronized later: http://drupal.org/node/485328.

Thank you!

Updated CSS code. After adding this into "multiselect.css" everything is now OK:

.multiselect .form-item{
  float: left;
}
.multiselect:after {
    content: ".";
    display: block;
    height: 0;
    clear: both;
    visibility: hidden;
}
 

Thank you!
