Actually that's actually like a module a made for jobs... You've read my mind about this.  :D
So in these instances I did choose the multi selection list.

But I also made a 'find shop by place' module. And I just want a (single option) dropdownmenu,
because visually it makes a nice list  ("Aah, there it is"), instead of scrolling in the box and control select ("This box is too small, now where is it?") which is a bit more difficult visually.
AND
most frontend users (dangerously generalising) simply don't know how to use control select in a multiple select list.

Being an interaction designer (as well) I needed to display the list as easy as possible.
That's why a choose single option list list when I made the module.

This was my point of view.

At the geekmoot your module was not known at all *gasp* so I simply could not let this opportunity go by.
At first glance, Samuel was impressed, (and will be taking a closer look) and thanked me for pointing it out to him.
So hereby to you: "Wow, this really looks interesting!"

(That will lift you up, won't it?  ;D )

Hi!

I'm using Cmsms 1.10.3, and CtlModulemaker 1.8.9.3. First of all it's a great module, I have problems only in advanced search. All of the search results were perfect, but I did not like this multiple select list. In the field "nehezseg" I changed CreateInputSelectList to CreateInputDropdown as I've read here in the forum. After that this one was working fine, but unfortunatley all the other fields in the advanced search went wrong.

You can find the advanced search window here (it's hungarian, sorry):

The items are here:

Does anybody have any ideas?
Thanks,
Anna
