I'm hoping there is just an easy answer that I have missed. I just need to create a select which allows freetype in html?

Thanks

Do you really mean FreeType (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FreeType) or adding an option dynamically by typing it in? – Quasdunk
as in works exactly like a select, in that I have multiple options within it but so that I can freetype over the options if needs be – Michael Wilson

If I understand you're question correctly, you can't do this with native HTML controls.

What you're looking for, I think, is something like the following jQuery plugin: http://www.jqueryplugins.com/plugin/254/ where you can either select a pre-existing entry or enter a custom value like you would via a standard input[type=text] element.
