grouping select options 2

[glenmac]

I've seen options in a select list grouped with a lable for each group but have forgotten the syntax. Can anyone help?

They are achieved using the OPTGROUP tag - it is an inclusion into HTML 4.0. Example:

<form>
<select>
	<optgroup label="Grouping 1">
		<option value="0">Item 1</option>
		<option value="1">Item 2</option>
		<option value="2">Item 3</option>
	<optgroup label="Grouping 2">
		<option value="3">Item 4</option>
		<option value="4">Item 5</option>
		<option value="5">Item 6</option>
</select>
</form>

Hope this helps.
