[thelist] image in select list

[Bob Meetin]

I played with this a bit more and got it to work using the radio button 
method.  It's not beautiful, but it works.  The data is coming out of a 
database, so it's reasonably painless at this point.  It's currently on 
an admin section of one of my sites.  If anyone wants to see it in 
action let e know and I will place it on a public page.  I was also 
thinking that to save real estate i could place images in tooltip 
popups, but chances are it will be a while before we have enough images 
to bother. Thx again for the idea.
