That’s to keep options from one set of boxes from ending up in another, if there are multiple sets on the same page.

I have one question: why do you do var left = $(this).parent().parent().find('select.left option:selected'); instead of var left = $('select.left option:selected'); ? Cheers Hi,

Great article, found it useful. I have one question: why do you do

var left = $(this).parent().parent().find(’select.left option:selected’);

instead of

var left = $(’select.left option:selected’);

?

Cheers

Enjoy! I finally got around to wrapping this up into a plugin:

http://plugins.jquery.com/project/comboselect

Perhaps this would make a nice feature: optional doubleclick to transfer the value. Nice job, looking forward to the plugin!

This example is so much more usable than the fragile control-click of a multiple select element. A bit more work, of course, but the payoff is user confidence and a clearer UI. Nice!

It seems like a nice, general purpose plugin for working with select inputs. However, it might be nice to have something more specific for creating the combo-select type of control as well, i.e., you start with a normal, single multi-select input in your markup, and transform it into a combo-select via a plugin like so: $('myselect').comboselect(); That's probably what I'll do with this at some point... @Yuri:
