The following javascript-code performs my desired task: <script type="text/javascript"> <!-- function unselectOtherSelectboxes(theForm, focusedSelectBox) { var allFormElements = theForm.elements; for (i = 0; i < allFormElements.length; i++) { if ( (allFormElements[i].type == "select-multiple") || (allFormElements[i].type == "select-one")) { if (focusedSelectBox != allFormElements[i]) { allFormElements[i].selectedIndex = -1; } } } } //--> </script> Then use the code below to build up your form: $attr = array('onchange' => "unselectOtherSelectboxes(this.form, this)"); $this->addeElement('select', 'sel_id', null, $opts, $attr); -- Regards Marco
