Chapter 6 Using Multiple
Selection Lists
Use multiple selection lists when the user can select more than one item on a list.
Openwave Multiple Selection List Guideline
■ Create only one <do> element or <do type="accept"> label, using five
characters or fewer for the multiple selection list.
Only one label is displayed; the second label is reserved for the device.
Example 6-1
Openwave Browser
<do type="accept" label="Done">
<go href="getnames.cgi"/>
</do>
<select name="recip" multiple="true">
<option value="bbrown">Bob Brown</option>
<option value="aclemson">Angelica Clemson</option>
<option value="dbigelow">Dirk Bigelow</option>
<option value="gkinser">Gary Kinser</option>
<option value="jlingle">Jeff Lingle</option>
</select>
Example 6-1 demonstrates how to create a multiple selection list. Notice that the code
does not use
<do type="options"> because it would render a Menu softkey
displaying the defined and
prev actions.
■ Do not use <option onpick = href> for items on the selection list.
Using <option onpick> does allow the user to select the item but may
automatically display the next URL.
