using javascript to naivigate a LARGE dropdown

[buzzybee]

I have a LARGE dropdown list for a user site, we are talking hundreds of options. I would like to implement a type of alpha search method to make navigation of the drop-down easier. I tried the 2 scripts on javascriptsource.com, and neither were options. The array builder simply ran too slow for the amount of data.....any ideas, help please!
TIA
