Chumad,

Javascript can't "click" the select list to have it show.  The clever script above will give that effect by changing the select to a multi-select list.  Hopefully that will work and all credit to Hielo for it.  However if you want to keep the select list not multiselect then there is no way to do it.

Let me know if you have any questions or need more information.

Is it possible to open a SELECT element automatically using JavaScript? (i.e., instead of the user clicking the down arrow, is there a way to get JavaScript to click it so that the list is just open)?<br />
<br />
Thanks

Open SELECT dropdown list automatically

JavaScript is a dynamic, object-based language commonly used for client-side scripting in web browsers. Recently, server side JavaScript frameworks have also emerged. JavaScript runs on nearly every operating system and  in almost every mainstream web browser.

JavaScript

C# is an object-oriented programming language created in conjunction with Microsoft’s .NET framework. Compilation is usually done into the Microsoft Intermediate Language (MSIL), which is then JIT-compiled to native code (and cached) during execution in the Common Language Runtime (CLR).
