Building a Select box out of a list using Jquery- Design and functionality

  • Hi everyone,,

    Is it possible to build a select box functionality into a list through Jquery?
    Because i have a custom design of a select box which can only be done through list.
    Here is the code i am working on...

    Select your role model
    • Demons
    • Angels
    • Vampires
    • lycans
    • predators

    I am stuck on the functionality, can't make it to work like a select box using jquery...
    I have tried through appendTo,text etc...i am not a hardcore programmer :(
    Please anybody has the codes or ways to achieve this?

    Thanks!!!

  • Have a look at the following plugin, it's very powerful and will do what you need if you use a standard select list instead.

  • thanks....yea i have looked into it and also JQ transform..
    the problem is that in my list, they have backgrounds and images(bullets) and don't need the scrolls..roughly 6-7 items.
    You can see a reference form the select box(filter) on this site..this is what i am trying to get..
