I’m experiencing a couple of problems when using multiple select lists in a webform...

1) The select list loses any of my groups, ie i’m listing a bunch of counties in the UK and use groups to delineate regions of the country. These are missing.
2) I have a webform with 3 select lists , one after another. Only 2 of the 3 lists expands properly. The middle one just won’t open

Any clues?

I had the same thing. Then after I made sure to add "id" and "name" attributes to all my select tags, the problem disappeared.

Hi there,

I had some issues as well with the dropdown not showing up when using multiple selects on a webform. The id and name attributes were correctly set. What I did to fix it was to removed the "select_name_nice" variable and replaced it with "select_id" to have a unique value. Actually the "select_name_nice" should deliver a unique value so the problem is the regex, but I don't see any purpose of having the this variable at all.

Complete js attached.

Cheers,
