HTML select box with images using jquery

I need to create an HTML drop down that will display flags of countries. The only solutions i found was with jquery and it generated a list of links from a select box.

The problem is i don't want to link the user to a different page , i want to later use the selected value on form submit (like a simple select box)

How can i do that ?

Thanks

Something like this should do the trick:

$(".myFlagItem").click(function() {
    $(".myHiddenInputBox").val($(this).attr("flagValue"));
})

I've used this plugin in the past - hopefully it does the trick for you (unless it's one you've already tried):

you can get the value you need from the jquery control and put it in a hidden field in the form you want to submit.
