A Drop Down List with Multiple Selects

Is there a way to make a drop down list have multiple selects? Holding CTRL. Maybe with a JQuery Plugin?

checkout Chosen if you have lots of elements, as this can be an issue with a standard select. it is highly customizable, from the website :

Chosen is a JavaScript plugin that makes long, unwieldy select boxes much more user-friendly. It is currently available in both jQuery and Prototype flavors.

Not sure about the keyboard input though (which may not matter depending on your use case).

For one dropdown list you can set the "multiple" attribute.

Just specify multiple="multiple" in your select element.

But remember. From a usability point of view, this isn't a very good solution. Maybe you should opt for a list of checkboxes instead.
