hi
i'm trying to create an online messaging system which allows users to
post to other individuals and groups within the system (using php, mysql
and a little js). the number of users/groups is sizable, but not
outrageous (in the realm of 100-200 - and many users won't see the whole
list anyway).
what i was intending to do was build an address book function, basically
a select list containing all the names/groups and, on double clicking,
it would move them to the "to:" field.
by grouping options (using optgroup) i was hoping to make this clean and
simple. (example at: http://bc.dev.unit-a.net/festival/test.htm)
however, the javascript i've found doesn't like optgroup - i've tried to
rewrite the js, but my skills aren't up to it!
so, does anyone have any other suggestions/examples they can point me to
as to how i can build a simple address book function?
many thanks
kris
