List box

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

A list box is a GUI widget that allows the user to select one or more items from a list contained within a static, multiple line text box. The user clicks inside the box on an item to select it, holding the Shift or Control (Command for Mac users) key allows him or her to make multiple selections.

A list box is also called a select or select1 in the XForms standard. Select is used for allowing the user to select many items from a list whereas select1 only allows the user to select a single item from a list.
